I haven't said that it is relevant to the current discourse. If you read earlier, I was arguing that creationism, if it should be at all taught, should be through philosophical seminar. My reference to Aquinas was to show that creationism can be argued. Evidently there are students for and against intelligent design in every high school, or at least they are curious about it. It is in a philosophy course that creationism be allowed to be heard and argued over.
