Skrípaleikurinn um vitræna hönnun heldur áfram af fullri alvöru

Court case may determine how evolution is taught in US

Summary:

In the town of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, 11 parents of children who already attend the nearby Dover High school or who will in future, together with the American Civil Liberties Union, are suing the Dover Area School District for voting in new rules that will encourage children to consider alternatives to evolution such as “intelligent design” (ID). The court’s verdict will only bind schools within the Dover district, but could influence how schools teach evolution across the country.
