In the News: School board considers response to 'intelligent-design' lawsuit |
From the article:
----------------------------------------------------
DOVER, Pa. - A school board that is requiring students to learn about
alternatives to the theory of evolution voted to retain legal counsel
for its defense against a federal lawsuit filed by eight families who
oppose a new "intelligent design" mandate.
Seven members of the Dover Area School District board voted
unanimously to retain a nonprofit law center that describes itself as
a defender of Christians' religious beliefs, the Thomas More Law
Center of Ann Arbor, Mich., despite the objections of most of the
community members who spoke at the meeting. The board did not issue a
comment on its decision.
