Oh - don't get me wrong - judicial decisions won't curtail ignorance.  But I
do think that they will change things.

When the creationism-in-schools movement is dealt a big legal blow it tends
to turtle itself for a while and then appear in a new guise.  Remember we
started with "Biblical Creationism" then moved to more generic "Creationism"
then went to "Creationism Science" and ended up most recently with
"Intelligent Design".

What's next?  "Architected Naturalism "?  "Frameworked Biology"?

Personally I think that they're going to take the current issues to heart
and attempt to "embrace and destroy" evolution.  Perhaps "Directed
Evolution" or (to please the young-Earth folks) "Phasmae Evolutionary
Theory".  This would promote the idea that evolution does occur but is
actually an unneeded side-effect of architected biology.

You see - there's lots of ways to dress up the same idea and have another go
at the courts!
