Pennsylvania Senate race will be one to watch in 2006 (phillyBurbs.com) | Pennsylvania News:
"The Democrats say Santorum has been softening his strongly conservative views on some issues, most recently citing his position on 'intelligent design,' the concept that living organisms are so complex they must have been created by a higher force rather than evolving from more primitive forms.
In a 2002 newspaper op-ed piece, he called intelligent design 'a legitimate scientific theory that should be taught in science classes.'
But the day after a federal judge ruled the Dover, Pa., school board's policy on intelligent design unconstitutional, Santorum said he was withdrawing from the advisory board of the Michigan-based Thomas More Law Center, which defended the district's policy. He said he never thought teachers should be required to teach intelligent design."
