The question asked by this thread was "Is teaching creationism in biology classes Constitutional?"

Not "Does the the Supreme Court think it is constitutional?"

The SCOTUS is the final authority in these matters.

Silly me, I had thought it was the Constitution. I had forgotten that the U.S. is governed by dictatorship now.

The SCOTUS interprets the Constitution, and its interpretation is the final say.

Well, yes, but the question isn't asking what the SCOTUS thinks. It would be a boring question if it did.

Absolutely; I was answering a different, later, question.
