You shouldn't count your chickens before they evolve Professor. The issue in Dover is quite a simple one. Who sets the curriculum for the students in Dover, the school board or the technocrats. All the expert witnesses in the world can't change that because the issue is not evolution or ID, the issue is federalism.

Yup, and it was decided the moment they ratified the 14th amendment. It's settled jurisprudence. Read the links on PH's profile page. The ACLU has proven that ID is a variety of creationism, and it has proven the school board actions had the purpose of promoting religion. That's all they had to do. The rest is settled law.

The issue is the separation of church and state -- in particular, the teaching of a disguised religious doctrine in a PUBLIC school science class, favorable toward one particular religious viewpoint.
