Courses titled "Special Providence: American Government," and "Christianity and Morality in American Literature," were also rejected.

Sorry nutcases, but the lawsuit isn't just about your favorite boogeyman, ID - it helps sometimes to read the article and have an idea what you are talking about. But it is also nice you see y'all side with the libs again. In fact, earlier articles about this gave short mention to ID which makes me think it is being used as a strawman to justify this discrimination.

Perhaps reading the post to which you reply would be a good idea as well. I for one made no attempt to address whether the non-biology material should be accepted or rejected. Thus, your attempt to understand that I did looks ... odd.

I've never seen a reasonable treatment of evolution by creation/ID sources. Thus was I noting that there's not the tiniest reason to think a Bob Jones U creationist textbook would convey anything scientifically educational.

See Furball4paws' insightful post 28. It's just as likely that the (possibly legitimate) examples of the history & literature courses are the strawmen being used by the creationists to slip in the (bogus) creationist biology courses.
