Nova: Judgment Day to air again Tues Feb 10

[JackHandyDeepThinker]

I wanted to give everyone a heads up that the Nova episode called Judgment Day will be airing again on Tuesday Feb 10, 2009. This program is about the Dover, PA case in which a group of reasonable and rational people challenged the efforts of some disguised religious fundamentalists to teach intelligent design as science in the public school classrooms. It was a very long trial in 2005 and led to an outstanding legal decision by a Republican appointed Federal Judge. He basically found ID to be nothing more than creationism dressed up to look like science. This program originally aired in Nov 2007. I highly recommend it! Similar battles are being fought all across the country now. Very timely considering the current machinations in the Texas School Board.

It's a great episode. Completely demolishes the ideas of intelligent design being anything more than creationism relabeled, disproves the major examples of irreducible complexity, and is a really awesome episode.
