Winning Intelligent Design Case Puts Plaintiffs Attorneys in Public Eye

A story on the ACLU trial lawyers of Kitzmiller v. Dover written by Gina Passarella appears in the Law Intelligencer.

The lawyers are now world famous and showing how they approach the debate. For instance, Stephen Harvey comments, "The right to believe includes the right not to believe."

Does this mean that if two or three worldview positions are put before public school students, they can choose which one seems most plausible. That option is no longer allowed in Pennsylvania. The Darwinistic worldview will now be taught unchallenged. While in school in Pennsylvania, you WILL be taught the state-sponsored worldview, but elsewhere, you can learn about other worldviews. Darwinism/Materialism has been elevated to the level of indisputable fact.

The lawyers also say that since there will be no appeal on the ruling, this case will most likely stand as a trial court opinion that is not binding on any other state.
