It was on this thread that the RM declared that “ science is not religion”. Then after that, some of the evolutionists started calling this the “official policy” of Free Republic, on other threads. I pinged the RM to have the criteria laid out for determining how it’s decided whether or not it’s a religion, and there was no response.

The request for a “science” caucus came from Coyoteman and js1138. The snag is that caucus protection only applies in religious debate on the Religion Forum (to provide safe harbor) and science is not religion.
So far there is no interest in allowing for caucuses outside the Religion Forum and no interest in allowing science to be considered a religion.
“Atheism” however is a belief (or non-belief) and has been successfully used as a tag on an ecumenical thread in the Religion Forum.

I don’t understand why someone who does not believe in Creationism would go onto the Religion Forum threads and argue. They go by faith and you go by scientific theory.
If a thread is moved to the Religion Forum, why are you there? I don’t understand.
I’m not a creationist btw.
