I put ‘wall’ in quotes b/c it is only a limitation or separation on the state ~ not the church nor the people.

Without your precious state funding evolution would have been discarded long ago as the useless theory that it is.

The scientists from centuries back payed their own way rather than being dependent on taxation and lawyers to do their bidding.

Without information theory you would not have a computer nor a network to continue posting your drivel.

Thomas Jefferson didn’t put scare quotes around a wall of separation. It is a limitation on the State - and the limitation goes both ways - the State cannot infringe upon free exercise of religion or pass laws that establish a particular religion in preference to others.

Evolution is a useful theory and its formulation, acceptance and use is in no way dependent upon government funding.

In the free market where ideas are either seen to have value or not - Science has value - knowledge of evolution has value - Creationism is useless.
