Evolution and Creationism

Court cases

A good deal of the creationism vs. evolution debate in schools has been fought out in the courts. Below you will find links to major court decisions regarding this issue. For links to other legal documents regarding the creationism vs. evolution debate, see the Annotated Bibliography for David Dunn's university course Geology Refutes Creationism.

The Scopes "Monkey Trial" site provides a synopsis, including a bibliography, of the events at and around the famous Scopes trial (linked from the American Studies site at the University of Virginia).
