FACTS OF THE CASE:

“EDWARDS, GOVERNOR OF LOUISIANA, ET AL. v. AGUILLARD ET AL. No. 85-1513 SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES 482 U.S. 578; 107 S. Ct. 2573; 1987 U.S. LEXIS 2729; 96 L. Ed. 2d 510; 55 U.S.L.W. 4860 December 10, 1986, Argued June 19, 1987, Decided.” (1) “The Creationism Act forbids the teaching of the theory of evolution in public schools unless accompanied by instruction in "creation science." No school is required to teach evolution or creation science. If either is taught, however, the other must also be taught. The theories of evolution and creation science are statutorily defined as "the scientific evidences for [creation or evolution] and inferences from those scientific evidences."” (2) Apparently, The State of Louisiana passed this law because they were trying to create an equal opportunity for the students to learn both, “Sciences.” This was in turned challenged by a group of parents and others from the community for violating the Establishment Clause. “According to them, any requirement of teaching creationism is an impermissible support of religion.”(3)
