Judge John Jones’ ruling (the full 139-page document is here) that the school district of Dover, Pennsylvania, had violated the US constitution by ordering that “intelligent design” should be taught in biology lessons has, of course, attracted much comment.
“Today's verdict is truly a victory for the constitution," said Witold Walczak, legal director of the American Civil Liberties Union, which supported the 11 parents who sued the board. "We are very pleased Judge Jones agreed with the plaintiffs and that public school science instruction will not be muddled with religious beliefs masquerading as scientific theories."
