admitting God
But those who do believe in God do that now. Many scientists believe that the universe is the way it is by God's will.
If you want all history, geography, biology, math etc texts to have a line inside the cover saying.
"As God has willed so we describe in this holy tome."
That wouldn't change the contents of any of the books by one line. We look to the universe to tell us just how God chose to set things up. That is what God left to tell us how he did things that is what is used.
What else are you asking for?
As has been noted elsewhere, the "big name" advocates for ID already agree that the biological explanation what has happened is something they agree with. They even appear to agree with at least some of the "hows" as well. They just want God to have a guiding hand now and then. They just haven't been able to point out exactly where he did the guiding. The attempts they have made have been shown to be a bit weak.
The line I suggest in the front of all books would cover the idea that there has been the occasionally guidance wouldn't it?
Of course, then you might have to start the argument over just who this god is.
