Discussion about “intelligent design” shows up regularly in the media. Although the ID movement is not a Christian movement per se, man Christians are involved in its research efforts. Technically speaking, however, it is a secular movement – one that intentionally includes the possibility of a variety of possible “designers.” It even allows that extraterrestrial beings could be responsible for planting the first life on Earth.

Reasons To Believe does not officially participate in efforts to incorporate intelligent design into public school science curricula. Those interested in pursuing such channels can consult with our friends at the Discovery Institute for more information about their "Teach the Controversy" campaign. Please visit their web site at www.discovery.org.
