Personally, I don’t mind if Evolution is taught — but when non-believers are shouted down and punished for their apostasy, then I do have a problem.

The problem scientists have is with a fundamentalist version of religion being forced into science classes under the guise of science.

What do you expect scientists to do when folks come claiming to be doing science, while at the same time violating all of the rules of science?

When Isaac Newton was doing science, he considered that there was likely to be a place for the Creator.

Since then, science has been re-defined -- specifically to exclude anything immaterial. Now, contra Newton, you are free to expell anyone who comes along "claiming to be doing science, while at the same time violating all of the rules of science" as you have freshly defined them.

How conveneient for you.

That's not what the movie is about.
How about allowing questions that the perverts can't answer? Is that Ok with you?
