"Intelligent Design" proponents lose Dover PA case

In article .com, says...

Roger Coppock wrote:
I just finished reading the decision. It is a TOTAL
victory for science over pseudo-science. Long
about page 60 it even says that science must
consider only natural, and not supernatural,
explanations. (DUH!) This will surely be applied
to the Kansas state school board, which has
tried to redefine science to include the supernatural.

This decision is that it is not the result of an
"activist judge." This decision is based totally
on president, not activism.

NOW, if we can only get the fossil fool pseudo
scientists into court!

You forget what rules the Supreme court these days!

So, will the new, more conservative Supreme Court rule that teaching religion
in public schools is constitutional, or will they rule that science is a form
of religion and thus should NOT be taught in public schools?? Given that the
Orientals are already producing an order of magnitude more engineers and
scientists than the U.S., that last option would sink U.S. science.

If science is a religion, can I claim to be a preacher and call my house a
"temple of science" and then stop paying property taxes, like a Christian
Church? I'd like to participate in all those other non-profit benifits,
just like the Baptists and the Catholics. This could get fun, unless the
Fundi's go on a "Sci-witch hunt" rampage.
