Why is this trial necessary? I believe the answerer can be found in the students of the 1960s and their world view. Those students stayed in college and became long term students in order to avoid LBJ's war. They got their BS,MS and PHD. Those students now are division chairs and department heads holding fast to their world view, which I believe is unchristian . If evolution is correct then there is no need for a belief in a creator or law and life giver, and therefor law and life evolve according to the observers without any absolutes. Thanks for updating us on this trial.

There is no need for a creator now, whether evolution is true or not.

OTOH, it is the CREOS that are put into doubt since so many creos have invested their livelyhood into preaching a strict interpretation of the Bible and that foundation will come crumbling down. Sort of like when the Church hung its had on a geocentric universe. Already, the Church is moving toward evolution but a radical sect is still pushing ignorant dogma. It will be them that fall, not the belief in a creator.

Your quite welcome; this tidbit about the 85 scientists was overdue for posting ... funny, the other side didn't see fit to discuss this aspect of the case.

At least they could have been sympathetic to all the jeers these scientist types are getting in their cafeterias at their universities...
