From the New York Times Op-Ed section.

I was pleased to read some of yesterday’s court decision about teaching Intelligent Design (check here for Orac’s take). It’s not that I don’t think that there could be Divine influence in the creation of our world — it’s simply that IMO, what belongs in the classroom is science, science that’s been proven via you know…the scientific method.

The NYT piece suggests a secular class that looks at the Bible as literature. I’d love to see it taken a step farther to see a class that looks at world religions in a comparative sense — but of course, that would catch flack from all sides.
