I hear what you're saying, but the defendants didn't BRING the case to the federal judge.

I think it is highly dangerous for a federal judge to dictate curriculum. The community can handle this on its own...they voted out the school board, the school board can recind the previous instruction, and the federal government isn't involved in deciding what kids learn.

I see it as an issue where the judge is overreaching his boundaries. I know many don't agree with me, but I've yet to be persuaded. We'll just have to agree to disagree. :)

The lack of understanding on this issue surprises me- the claim that evolution is a "proven fact" just isn't true.
All the judge did in this case was declare one religious belief superior to another. And after 150 years of fruitless search for a single fact to support evolution, belief in this theory- THEORY- has indeed become a matter of faith.
