But IDers didn't attack the bogus court decisions regarding religion, they attacked firmly established science. That was a stupid move, that wasted money, time, and cost them political capital and credibility.

You don't have a clue as to what ID really is, do you? I see you suffer from the same ignorance as Judge Jones.

Here - let me help you out:

What Is Intelligent Design?

ID is not an "explanation" until it says something specific about the designer, something that differentiates the designer from natural selection and which makes different predictions about evidence yet to be found.

Good article you linked to. To bad the judge decided early on to apply a religious test to ID.

His a priori assumption doomed this case from the beginning, apparently. I guess I'd hoped for too much in hoping for a balanced judge.

What ID pretends to be, and what it actually is, are two entirely different things. The testimony of the trial, when "Christians" got on the stand and lied under oath about what they had said in their School Board meetings, demonstrated all I need to know about ID and it's proponents.
