'''cdesign proponentsists''' is described as the missing link between [[creationism]] and [[intelligent design]]. The term came into being during the [[Kitzmiller vs. Dover Area School District]] trial in [[Pennsylvania]] over the legitimacy of intelligent design as a science vs that of [[evolution]]. A crucial piece of the defense (Pro-intelligent design) was a book called [[Of Pandas and People]] which was marketed as a science textbook for middle and high school children. During the trial, previous copies of the book were subpoenaed for review. It was discovered that previous versions of the book had the word creationist or creationism or some form of the term in replace of every use of the words intelligent design. In one of the most solid bits of evidence against intelligent design, it was shown where an editor lazily copied and pasted "design proponents" over the word "creationists" but had not even done a proper job resulting in "cdesign proponentsists". This evidence and more lead to [[John E. Jones III]]'s verdict that Intelligent design was the same as creationism and that the ID movement was an subversive attempt to inject creationism into the classroom. Creationism had been banned by the Supreme Court in an earlier ruling.
