Wow, it looks like the Roseville Joint Union High School District in Sacramento, California picked on the wrong parent!! According to this article, a Mr. Larry Caldwell is suing the school district for violating "his constitutional rights to free speech, equal protection and religious freedom." He is also seeking a retraction from a Eugenie Scott, who has some connection to the case that is not made clear. This Scott person (is "Eugenie" a guy's name or a girl's name?) apparently rather drastically misrepresented Mr Caldwell's proposal and position. It really is not atypical for Darwinists to do this, to try to make you look like a rabidly fanatical evangelical. They do this so that anyone except another rabidly fanatical evangelical (or someone like me who is familiar with their tactics) will dismiss you out of hand without considering your arguments. They cannot win on the merits you see, because "Intelligent Design" really is not saying anything most people would disagree with. It is about time someone took advantage of the fact that they can't keep the straw-man attacks out of the debate!
