Read the opinion. It took him 138 pages because he had to document in detail the numerous misrepresentations and lies of the ID advocates.

That was irrelevant to the question of whether or not the Dover School board established a religion. Even if they intended to establish a religion, it is clear that they fell way short.

Can you show me how that two sentence statement amounts to an establishment of a religion? I have posted a link to the constitution and so far no one has taken me up on the challenge.

It is extremely relevant, since the board members made the laughable argument that they wanted to advocate ID in order to improve the quality of science teaching and not for religious purposes.

It disparages an accepted scientific theory for the sole purpose of promoting specific religious beliefs.
