In a speech to the Anti-Defamation League, Jones said that "had I decided the Dover matter in a different way, I would have then engaged in just the kind of judicial activism which critics decry," stating that he was bound by "over a half century of strong legal precedents."[http://www.adl.org/Civil_Rights/speech_judge_jones.asp]

One of the first major books with evidence for intelligent design was [[Michael J. Behe]]'s.  Behe is a Professor of Biochemistry at Lehigh University.  He alleges in "Darwin's Black Box" [http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0684834936/thetalkorigin-20/] that there are certain ''irreducible complexities'' which can only be addressed by an intelligent designer. There is no evidence as yet to suggest such systems exist.

Many Intelligent Design advocates propose the "watch" analogy.  Imagine one is walking along a beach and suddenly encounters a wrist-watch.  Given its relative sophistication vis-a-vis its environment, and the obvious non-random care with which it was made, does the wrist-watch pre-suppose an Intelligent Designer? Scientists have evidence that random mutations and selection can account for even the greatest complexity, whereas intelligent design proponents and creation scientists assume that given the deliberate nature of the watch, it must have had external design.
