Then why are they so jumpin ugly over evolution?
***Because evolution is becoming a religion. That’s why guys like you want protection from religious discussion on your scientism threads. But, of course, you’re reluctant to call it a religion so the religious moderator is looking at a standoff.

Just like Secular Humanism (atheism) in the Court system -

it’s a religion when they want it to be (for free expression purposes)

but it’s not a religion when that isn’t convenient (establishment)

I'm sure they'll let you discuss whether or not evolution is a religion in the Religion forum any time you want.
