ID + Behe X Astrology = Bullshit

During the ongoing Dover religion Intelligent Design trial, Michael "Goddidit" Behe has recently stated that under his definition of a scientific theory, "astrology would fit as neatly as intelligent design".

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!

Ok, according to Behe (and every rational thinking person on this planet) ID has as much merit in the world of science as astrology, which we all know is
complete and utter bullshit. So why teach ID in schools?

Behe states ID is another "theory" of "how complex biological structures arose." Let's examine this theory. The bible of ID, "Of Pandas and People" defines ID thusly:

"Intelligent design means that various forms of life began abruptly through an intelligent agency with their distinctive features already intact, fish with fins and scales, birds with feathers, beaks and wings, etc."

That's it. That's their theory. Complex biological structures began abruptly through an intelligent agency. Or in other words, God did it.

I can't wait for that college final:

Good Job, Bob!

I might just steal that pic. I've got an upcoming biology test (not really) and I need to study. So the FSM did it... Oh, wait. God. Dang. My second guess was the Invisible Pink Unicorn (may her hooves never be shod), so I guess I have to get this memorized better.

Great exam paper, Rockstar.

You might be interested in the current ID situation in Australia where 70,000 scientists have just published an open letter condemning ID:
