California ruling ends trial on evolution in schools
A California judge ruled that the state policy on teaching evolution as theory rather than fact stands, while ordering clearer communication to teachers and publishers. Both sides claimed victory as the case narrows to textbook guidelines and the emphasis on conditional statements over dogma. The decision recalls the 1925 Scopes trial but centers on whether evolution is taught as theory or fact.
