Thank you, Judge Cooper

A federal judge in Atlanta, Georgia, has ruled that a suburban county school district's textbook stickers referring to evolution as "a theory not a fact" are unconstitutional.

I want to hug this judge. He held that the stickers violated the Establishment Clause of the 1st Amendment: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion". This applies to the states through the action of the 14th Amendment. From the article:

The sticker, [Judge Cooper] said, sends "a message that the school board agrees with the beliefs of Christian fundamentalists and creationists."

"The school board has effectively improperly entangled itself with religion by appearing to take a position," Cooper wrote. "Therefore, the sticker must be removed from all of the textbooks into which it has been placed."
