An interesting presentation from the National Center for Science Education on the part they played in the Dover School District creationism case, and their analysis of differing drafts of the creationist textbook Of Pandas and People.

The smoking gun moment was when they discovered the nonsense words “cdesign proponentsists” in the latest draft—a sloppy cut and paste job that resulted in a telltale mix of “creationists” and “intelligent design proponents.”

When people say that “Intelligent Design” is simply repackaged creationism, this is one reason why.
