Does McCain Favor Teaching "Intelligent Design" In Science Class?

Here's what his campaign told CBN's David Brody:

"Senator McCain believes evolution is supported by science, but that we shouldn’t be afraid to expose students to other theories."

Presumably, this doesn't mean the Scientologist's theory of human development?

Doesn't answer the question, though, as to whether McCain thinks "intelligent design" "theories" should be "taught" in science class. Brody calls ID "creationism," so we're allowed to put quotation marks around ID theory.

Our question: does McCain believe that "intelligent design creationism" is supported by science?

Of course McCain doesn't believe that "intelligent design creationism" is supported by science! He just can't say that that clearly and still hope to get the "base" behind him. Duh!!
