Portion of today's article regarding testimony on Monday. miller seems to have admitted that evolution is not a 'fact'. Anyone who tries to suggest that gravity and friction are not 'facts' in the same way evolution is not a 'fact' is going to have problems later on in his cross examination. I don't think Miller is going to hold up very well.

"Cross examination starts: The ACLU's Walczak ended his line of questioning with Miller with about an hour and a half left in the day.

Robert Muise, attorney with the Thomas More Law Center, began his cross examination by suggesting that maybe there was evidence, "observable, empirical facts" to a greater hand's help in the Red Sox victory.

His next line of questions seemed to focus on the language used in the board's policy, which says there are "gaps" in Darwin's theory.

But Miller countered that no scientific theory is a fact: Even the theories of friction and gravity are not "fact" because in science, everything is subject to testing.

Bonsell said he thought the first day of the trial was successful for the school board. In his opinion, he said, Miller had not said that the language in the school board's policy was incorrect."

They're giving high fives over at Panda's Thumb. Our side thinks he hit it out of the park.

Of course evolution is not a fact. It's a theory.
