I Want to Thank God...

that god can't be taught in school... well in PA anyway.i love what the judge(jones) had to say (a republican christian no less)
Jones decried the “breathtaking inanity”
&
"(intelligent design)presents students with a religious alternative masquerading as a scientific theory, directs them to consult a creationist text as though it were a science resource and instructs students to forgo scientific inquiry in the public school classroom and instead to seek out religious instruction elsewhere."
&
In his ruling, Jones said that while intelligent design, or ID, arguments “may be true, a proposition on which the court takes no position, ID is not science.” Among other things, he said intelligent design “violates the centuries-old ground rules of science by invoking and permitting supernatural causation”; it relies on “flawed and illogical” arguments.
and did the proponents of (un)intelligent design take it well, no the main party (dover) had this to say:
“I’m still waiting for a judge or anyone to show me anywhere in the Constitution where there’s a separation of church and state,” he said. “We didn’t lose; we were robbed.”
well sir though technically right, the constitution also doesn't say 'right to a fair trial' so you can blame it on that....
