CNN.com - Judge rules against 'intelligent design' in science class - Dec 20, 2005: "In an opinion issued Tuesday, U.S. District Judge John Jones ruled that teaching 'intelligent design' would violate the Constitutional separation of church and state.
'We have concluded that it is not [science], and moreover that ID cannot uncouple itself from its creationist, and thus religious, antecedents,' Jones writes in his 139-page opinion posted on the court's Web site. (Opinion, pdf)...
Richard Thompson, a spokesman for the Michigan-based Thomas More Law Center, which aided the school district, called Jones' verdict a 'troubling decision.'
'The founders of this country would be astonished at the thought that this simple curriculum change established religion in violation of the Constitution that they drafted,' Thompson said."
It's probably best to try and get teachers to point out the holes in Darwin's theory rather than try to get them to teach ID.
