The ends justify the lies?

Ian Brown has selected a telling quote from Federal judge John Jones' ruling against the teaching of "intelligent design" as part of the science curriculum in a Pennsylvania school district:

"It is ironic that several of these individuals, who so staunchly and proudly touted their religious convictions in public, would time and again lie to cover their tracks and disguise the real purpose behind the ID Policy.

"We find that the secular purposes claimed by the board amount to a pretext for the board's real purpose, which was to promote religion in the public school classroom."
