Dover Pa. Gets It

Thank you Dover Pennsylvania! In yesterday’s elections the entire school board of Dover Pa. was voted out. Why is this important? Because the old board was peddling Intelligent Design [ID], which, as all of you know, is creationsism by another name. Some of the local parents had sued the old board to get ID removed from the curriculum, and subsequently the local courtroom had become a showcase for the ID’ers to challenge mainstream science — they even trooped out Professor Behe from Lehigh who is the leading ID intellectual [if that isn’t an oxymoron]. The irony now is that the new anti-ID board will have to decide whether to appeal the case when, hopefully, the court finds in favor of the parents! Don’t hold your breath on that one. So it’s too bad about Kansas, but well done Dover!
