INTERVIEWER: Who or what is the designer?
EVANGELICAL: What?
EVANGELICAL: Who is the designer in 'intelligent design? '
EVANGELICAL: Well, we haven 't defined that --
INTERVIEWER: Perhaps some kind of alien?
EVANGELICAL: No, of course not!
INTERVIEWER: Then who is the designer? Whose is the intelligence?
EVANGELICAL: Almighty God!
INTERVIEWER: And isn 't the church, or the synagogue or the temple or the mosque the place to teach people about God?
EVANGELICAL: We need religion in the schools! Children should be exposed to moral teachings! And the Bible is the source --
INTERVIEWER: So it 's a only a question of teaching morals?
EVANGELICAL: Of course!
INTERVIEWER: So you 'd have no objection to the moral precepts of the Koran being taught in public schools?
EVANGELICAL: What!?
INTERVIEWER: Or the moral philosophies of the ancient Greeks? Or those contained in the Torah? Or those in the sacred writings of Hinduism? Taught in the public schools and posted in public buildings?
EVANGELICAL: No, no! There 's no way we 'd allow those heathen writings in our schools!
