What, evolution supported by leftist lies and plagiarism?

Tell me it isn't so!

[Teacher317]

It's very common for judges to copy-n-paste sections from the parties' submitted briefs.

"A historic judicial ruling against intelligent design theory...."

There is no such thing as Intelligent Design Theory, it is a hypothesis at most

Unintelligent design in findings of fact and conclusions of law.

Judge Jones is a tin-plated fraud.

[bvw]

So what do we have here?

A ruling that's 90.9% prior creation, and 9.1% evolution. Sounds realistic to me. In the ballpark.

[Enchante]

"...about 90.9 percent – 5,458 words of his 6,004-word section on intelligent design as science – was taken virtually verbatim from the ACLU's proposed "Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law" submitted to Jones nearly a month before his ruling."

Hey, if he's 9.1% original in that section then he's doing really well for a liberal judge....... of course he may have plagiarized the rest of his opinion from other sources.

Who woulda thought?

If you look at what's happening, you should be able to pinpoint what the REAL PROBLEM is.

What this news shows is DISHONESTY on the part of Judge Jones during the proceedings of the court case.

There were several ID proponents who recently attended a speech given by Judge Jones.

In that speech, he practically stated that he had made up his mind within the first week of the hearing but allowed the case to proceed anyway.

Why did he do that ? My guess is to gather more press attention ala Scopes.

So, BEFORE evidence was even presented, this man had already decided what his ruling would be. The rest of the proceedings would only be for show. It is OBVIOUS that he didn’t put much effort into considering this case honestly and objectively.

This "plagiarism" from ACLU simply provides evidence for this.

Judge Jones has shown himself to be BOTH a POLITICAL ACTIVIST and also a NEWS SEEKING HACK.

[balch3]

Outrageous. This ruling should be overturned imediately.

[JCEccles]

The Mystical Priests of Materialism just love the sounds of their own words. No one is smarter. No one is more knowledgable.

So naturally when the intellectually lighweight Judge Jones simply and unoriginally spat their own fatuous words back at them, they fell on the ground and writhed in orgasmic delight. "What a Solomon! What a MIND!"

LOL! That's how a third-rate legal mind became the toast of the Ivy League science establishment.

[Cicero]

This pretty much confirms what I said at the time.

It's a sad situation when the Darwinists go running to the ACLU and tyrant judges to hang onto their monopoly in the public schools.

At the time, everyone on the Darwinist side said that this was a "conservative" judge. Oh, sure, and pigs are flying, too.

If Darwinism is so confident in its correctness, maybe it could face a little honest competition from other theories. But evidently the Darwinists just can't stomach competition, so the go running to the activist judges just like all their leftist friends, and use the law when science won't work.
