Then yes or no.
No more lame excuses.
Should ID be taught in public schools, in a science classroom?

The Dover, PA fundys on the school board there tried pushing this.
The ID proponents showed themselves to be liars and religious bigots,
and total boobs when it came to science.

The judge ruled against the board, who had their sorry asses kicked off
the school board by voters.

"Good Christians" sent many death threats against the judge.

*YOU* stated the judge was wrong and you disagreed with his decision.
You refuse to say why.

Yes I do have bigotry towards hysterical, unevidenced authoritarian
beliefs. So sue me.
