Don’t Say I Didn’t Warn You

I’ve often thought that, if we force schools to teach ID alongside evolutionary theory, we will eventually have to teach Aristotelian physics alongside quantum mechanics. After all, the theory of universal gravitation is just a theory, and we ought not to prevent our students from being exposed to rival theories.
Apparently this has already happened without my even noticing it. According to a story in The Onion schools in Kansas are teaching a theory of “Intelligent Falling” to replace the theory of gravitation. Personally, I still prefer Aristotle’s theory, but that’s just me.
Yes, I know the Onion is satire. Please. What do you take me for? An Aristotelian? An ID theorist?
