While candidates for the 4th District Kansas State Board of Education
seat shared common ground Thursday, they diverged on at least one
issue: the role of "intelligent design" in public education.
Before a crowd of nearly 40 at Lawrence High School, incumbent Bill
Wagnon, a Washburn University professor, and challenger Robert
Meissner, a Topeka dentist, debated several state education issues,
the majority of which they agreed upon.
But Wagnon stated unequivocally that intelligent design -- an
alternative theory to evolution advocated primarily by Christian
groups -- did not belong in science curricula, while Meissner said he
wanted to keep an open mind about the issue.

Could you take a moment here and detail for us this "Theory" of
intelligent design?
And, oh, I shouldn't HAVE TO say this, but I did not just ask you
to list imaginary "issues" with evolution. I already know about
the theory of evolution. I need or want you to explain it to me. I
want you to explain this "Theory" of intelligent Design, and only
explain this "Theory" of Intelligent Design.
I mean, if there is one.
Thanks in advance.

Dentists. Very dangerous. You go first.

If it's dentists you're scared of, shouldn't you be rolling over onto your stomach?

I repeat: 4 out of 5 dentists recommend the Theory of Evolution.
