Calif. district abandons intelligent design class
FRESNO, Calif. —
Under legal pressure, a rural school district Tuesday canceled an elective philosophy course on intelligent design and agreed never to promote the topic in class again.
A group of parents had sued the El Tejon school system last week, accusing it of violating the constitutional separation of church and state with "Philosophy of Design," a high school course taught by a minister's wife that advanced the notion that life is so complex it must have been created by a kind of higher intelligence.
