1.) To encourage open inquiry in the general sciences, and thus not stipulate what may or may not be proposed as testable hypotheses - including, but not limited to, those that may entail the concept of intelligent design - but rather welcome the creation of reasonable statements representing the observer's understanding of the universe.
2.) To participate in a hearty debate over the merits, or lack thereof, in encouraging the above by questioning in some detail the assertion that the Theory of Evolution is the only valid interpretation of the evidence presented by the known universe.
3.) To be an instrument in the creation of a Theocracy that will jail all public dissidents, especially those who openly engage in questioning the authority of the Bible.
NOTE: One of the above points is entirely unrepresentative of my point. Can you tell which?
