I'm not surprised.
If I would have a single, basic argument to put forth in the controversy it is that the General Sciences need to allow the inquiring mind an opportunity to challenge all information with which it is presented. Science is not preaching.
Attendant to that argument, WRT practical implications, I think it is acceptable to admit the possibility of intelligent design into the classroom without entering into specific religious teachings.
Lastly, as a point of personal observation, I have yet to see science and the Bible disprove each other. They fit together like hand in glove. Both make propositions to be accepted by faith, and both give evidence enough to be accepted as true.
