- Federal Court to Make a Landmark Ruling on Science (MSNBC News)
"The Pennsylvania case 'is probably the most important legal situation of creation and evolution in the last 18 years,' said Eugenie Scott, executive director of the National Center for Science Education, which opposes challenges to the standard model of evolution."
" 'This will be the first legal challenge to intelligent design, and we’ll see whether they have been able to mask the creationist underpinnings and basic orientation of intelligent design,' she said. Regardless who wins, 'it will have quite a significant impact on what happens in American public school education.' ”
"This is where things get sticky, because it all boils down to a basic argument over just what is evolution and what is religion." 9-05
