Changes

The term "'''cdesign proponentsists'''" came into vogue use by evolutionists during and after the [[Kitzmiller vs. Dover Area School District]] trial in [[Pennsylvania]] over the legitimacy of intelligent design as a science. A crucial piece of the defense (Pro-intelligent design) was a book called [[Of Pandas and People]], a science textbook for middle and high school children. During the trial, previous copies drafts of the book manuscript were subpoenaed for reviewby lawyers representing the plaintiffs. It was discovered that previous versions of the book had drafts written before 1987 used the words "creationist"," "creationism" and other similar words and phrases in place of every use of , etc, while drafts written since 1987 used the words "intelligent design" and similar words and phrases in later editions. In a single, isolated case"design proponents", it etc. The first draft of the manuscript to include this change was shown written after the Edwards vs. Aguillard case, when the [[Supreme Court]] ruled that the teaching of creationism in public schools was unconstitutional.  In one instance, the word "creationists" oddly had been only partially incompletely replaced with "design proponents"," strangely resulting in producing "cdesign proponentsists," which evolutionists quickly touted as ". The NCSE, representing the plaintiffs, used this to demonstrate that intelligent design was creationism under a new name, and joked that cdesign proponentsists were the "missing link " between creationism and intelligent designthe two."<ref>[http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/transcripts/3416_id.html Nova transcript, "Judgment Day: Intelligent Design on Trial", PBS.org]</ref>
