The school district is mandating that students be told there IS an alternative theory, but as I understand (correctly? incorrectly?), the teachers are not teaching that theory (ID), but telling students they may investigate it on their own if they wish.
Am I getting this right? I'm not really familiar with the whole Dover story...someone help with details?
Thomas More Law Center is defending the school district:

"In 1987, the Supreme Court ruled in Edwards v. Aguillard, that the belief that a supernatural creator was responsible for the creation of human kind is a religious viewpoint and cannot be taught in public schools along with the scientific theory of evolution."
