Eugenie Scott, director of the National Center for Science Education, which campaigns to keep evolution in public schools, said

“I think as a legal strategy, intelligent design is dead. That does not mean intelligent design as a social movement is dead. This is an idea that has real legs and it’s going to be around for a long time. It will, however, evolve.”
