Excellent. Let's lie to further God's truth.

Equating what was done on the stand in Dover with missionary work in hostile environments is patently absurd. What was said on the stand, IMHO, was done to save face, not to further God's message. They risked nothing more than their place on the school board, Christian missionaries in Muslim countries risk their lives.

I don't know if what you are saying is true but I think that the lawyers must have gotten to the board members with the realization that the original intent ("putting God in school" or some such thing) wasn't a winning case. I suspect the now former board members changed their testimony to reflect that which was descirbed as "misleading" by Judge Jones.
