Monaghan says "So we'll continue to fight a battle that we've already seen other communities rip themselves apart around."
The law that Exorcist-in-Chief Jiondal signed is a bad law, but the real disaster will be at the local level, just as it was in Dover, PA. Some group of good-ole-boy creationists will take the law to mean they can teach creationism as long as they call it something else (wink-wink nudge-nudge). And then, just as in Dover, the world will descend and another local community will suddenly have a million-dollar court bill to pay. What a waste of time and money, and an embarrassment to the community and the state
