Prove you wrong scientifically?, scientifically I can't, you can't prove a negative in science, you can only prove a positive that would rule out a negative.

No do I, however, logically god does not exist, let alone God. Faith is not a logical proposition, "believe this unproven thing" is illogical captain.

I don't, logically He doesn't exist.

As a believer in Creation, honestly, I'd just be happy if there were more up to date textbooks that don't include blatant hoaxes and mistakes - oh I forgot one earlier, like the peppered moth example that was also uncovered as a hoax. It seems a shame to me that we would be teaching these things when we know they are not true.
It does seem to be playing with fire to be introducing so much theology into biology class...

Well, biology should probably be taught in biology, even if you accept that ID is a theory (technically, it's a supposition) it certainly isn't a scientific one, and shouldn't be taught in a science class. Creationism doesn't even pretend to be a theory, that's plain belief.
