Eight Dover families are trying to have the controversial theory removed from the curriculum, arguing that it violates the constitutional separation of church and state. They say it effectively promotes the Bible's view of creation.
And they think teaching another idea of creation is not promoting another religion's view of creation?
RELIGION: A cause, principle, or activity pursued with zeal or conscientious devotion.
Someone needs to Counter Sue these 8-Dover-Families. They are trying to force their religion on the the other 126,689 Dover residents.

If a public school were to teach that gravity works through the intercession of the supernatural (ie. Intelligent Inertia), I would be the first to protest. That doesn't make me a rabid Newtonist...it means I don't want superstition taught at public expense.

Why is it that whenever creationists want to slander evolution, they call it "religion?"
