This is the first I've heard of creationists attempting to push bunk science masquerading as "Intelligent Design" into Ohio's public schools. Since I'm from Cincinnati, this struck me, and I thought it even more interesting because the TalkOrigins web page features an article from the Cincinnati Enquirer in 2002 as emblematic of the creationist perspective, along with details for debunking that nonsense.

Why is evolution called a "theory"?
Here is the big secret creationists don't want you to know: the word "theory" has a different definition when used in science than when used in casual conversation! So why is evolution a "theory"? Well, it's not... Not really. It is a fact, in terms of what is plainly observable. It's pretty easy to understand the terminology, which means creationists who try to make people confused about this word are dishonest!
There ARE transitional fossils
Creationists love to pretend there are no "transitional fossils." See for yourself. But they are lying. It's maddening.
