During cross-examination, several board members had been
caught lying about the religious beliefs behind their policy. This
aspect of the intelligent design movement troubles Rothschild.
“In the Scopes era, people were honest about what they were
doing: It was about religion. When the courts said they couldn’t
put creationism into the curriculum or outlaw evolution for religious
reasons, the creationists pursued the tactic of camouflage.
Rather than accept that, and keep religion separate or in private or home schools,
they’ve continued to advance the same mission less forthrightly.”
