[About Kenneth Miller, the evolutionary scientist who is also a practicing Catholic]
He is dismissing the facts, he's a Christian hating bigot and the Dover trial was a farce and a miscarriage of justice.

"Dover trial was [...] a miscarriage of justice."
I agree. After all their lying for Jesus while under oath, half the defendants should have been jailed for perjury.
I agree, it was a farce. The IDiots should never have been able to take it that far.
I try to be open minded, but I seriously don't get how scientists can rationalise their belief in a deity.
Well you're half right, Dover was a farce and you bible thumping, lying ass clowns got called on it and your butts handed to you in court by a Bush appointed Republican Judge, fucking deal with it.
I read Judge Jones' official 139-pages decision, and you should too (surprisingly interesting for a legal document!):

In short, IDers (or wishy-washy Creationists who didn't dare to say 'God' after a 1987 trial forbade creationism in class -- that pesky Establishment Clause) got their comeuppance, after demonstrated perjury among other points...
Reality's a bitch, ain't it?
'He is dismissing the facts, he's a Christian hating bigot and the Dover trial was a farce and a miscarriage of justice. '
The only reason it's a farce is because the fundy creationist assholes weren't jailed for perjury.
“He is dismissing the facts,”
Weird how time and time again, everyone who studies this subject just dismisses YOUR facts…
“he's a Christian hating bigot”
Sounds more like Christains.
Oh, unless you meant to put a hyphen between Christain and hating. That would change the statement completely.
“and the Dover trial was a farce and a miscarriage of justice.”
So, sure, file an appeal.
But, i do recall that they showed where the ID textbook had copies straight out of the creationist textbook. It’s not the trial that was the farce, it’s the entire existence of ID.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
