We do not agree with her opinion. Firstly, the theory of intelligent design is not in contradiction with science theories and hence will not challenge the concept of evolution in biology. While the latter explains how we changed, the former provide a reason for the origin of humas. Secondly, people have the misconception that Although scientific theories were proven with experiments, they have their limitations too. For example, the laws of classical physics cannot be applicable at many points outside of earth. While science seeks to find out the "laws" of nature, it does not have the ability to show the full picture yet, hence it is not as reliable as people thought to be.
We also feel that by teaching intelligence design, teachers are not undermining science but are offering a new perspective. As mentioned earlier, intelligence design does not undermine science but possibly compliment the scientific theory of evolution. Before the theory of intelligence is proven or disproven, it should be considered as an option and not be placed aside.
