"But the judge should not have intruded himself into deciding curriculum."

So, as you see it then, citizens with complaints have no recourse in the US Courts, because if not there to settle a case, what's the function of Judges and Courts?

By the way, the Judge only confirmed with his Judgment what the voters of Dover made more than clear, when they booted out all eight members of the school board that mandated intelligent design to be taught in public school.

The people exercised their power, and the Courts backed them.

Which part of that is it that you don't agree with?

No, I think the judge should have recognized this is not a federal question. Instead, he chose to insert himself into what is a LOCAL question.

I have no problem at all with the the VOTERS deciding what their kids learn. I have a BIG problem with a federal judge dictating curriculum in a school.
