The Establishment of Evolution: Public Courts and Public Classrooms

Article by Chet K.W. Pager

This Article organizes and categorizes the tangled Establishment Clause jurisprudence into the framework of motivational scrutiny, neutrality, and incommensurability, which provides a useful guide to conceptualize the ongoing interactions between creationists and the courts, to approach recent creationist challenges, and ultimately to guide future creationist strategies to circumvent Establishment Clause barriers.
