All eight Dover, Pa., school board members up for re-election were defeated Tuesday after trying to introduce "intelligent design" � the belief that the universe is so complex that it must have been created by a higher power � as an alternative to the theory of evolution. "I'd like to say to the good citizens of Dover: If there is a disaster in your area, don't turn to God. You just rejected him from your city," Mr. Robertson said on the Christian Broadcasting Network's 700 Club . Later Thursday, Mr. Robertson issued a statement saying he was simply trying to point out that "our spiritual actions have consequences." Mr. Robertson made headlines this summer when he called on his daily show for the buttbuttination of Venezuelan President Hugo Ch�vez.
