The difference is that people interested in science do not have a forum where discussion can be limited to scientific issues, whereas people interested in religion can exclude skepticism from their threads.
I have asked about four times in the last couple of days exactly what religion has to contribute in a science classroom. Exactly what would be taught if a state had a law like Louisiana's that permits teaching of alternatives.
I'm still waiting for an answer.
This is an example of the result of our differing presumptions. Christian's ask what does science (or anything else we do for that matter) do to exalt, glorify or praise God. Christians must also realize that false witness and accepting lies as truth is not what God expects or requires.
The ‘Net,’ I’m told, is loaded with those types of forums (try DC, although I understand it is obsessed with attacking certain people who frequent this forum. Maybe you can elevate the quality of discussion over there). This is Jim’s forum – he isn’t obliged to provide you with a custom-tailored soapbox. But he’s a nice guy, so he might. Have you had any discussions on that subject with him?

And I’ve asked innumerable times why anyone would demand public funds and then expect their enterprise not to be subject to the turbulence of public policy, and have yet to receive any reply except whining. So, what?
