You still fail to realize that now the State Board of Education in Ohio agreed to allow local districts to bring critical analysis of Darwin's ideas into classrooms.

Not an answer to my objection: "DI's behavior is unforgiveable, and so is Dembski still brazening it out."

You said they want textbooks to be accurate. I don't think so. They're not very accurate themselves, and their inaccuracy seems very self-serving.

Actually, you could say that the actual wording of the Ohio standards contained a mild rebuke of ID:
H. Describe a foundation of biological evolution as the change in gene frequency of a population over time. Explain the historical and current scientific developments, mechanisms and processes of biological evolution. Describe how scientists continue to investigate and critically analyze aspects of evolutionary theory. (The intent of this benchmark does not mandate the teaching or testing of intelligent design.)
