There's more than just science. The same sort of people can also be found at the forefront of various censorship efforts, seking to ban music acts, TV shows, movies, and the like (for being "anti-Christian"), and generally seeking to impose a particular viewpoint on the rest of us ("You're not a conservative unless you believe what I do!!!"). They cannot and will not abide that single most conservative viewpoint of all...mind your own business.
Some I have seen on this very site advise other conservatives to "go vote Dem" if they didn't agree with everything the fringer wanted, as "we're the ones in charge here". Some think that there are actually votes we can live without!!
One is forced to wonder if they really do care about conservatism or Republicanism at all, or if it is simply a vehicle for them to get their beliefs enacted into law, or taught as fact in schools.
They're not really Republicans. Not even Americans, if you define an American as someone who supports the Constitution. They're basically theocrats.
Don't be misled by their slogans about "fairness." Fairness isn't an issue here. If we wanted to go into their churches and demand equal time for evolution, or if we wanted to put stickers on their Sunday school books, then they'd have a gripe. As it is, they have no legitimate complaint. Their religious freedom is intact.
In fairness, I'm not a fan of government schools, but as long as we've got them, we shouldn't trust those unionized government creeps to handle religious instruction. Let them teach science. They're not very good at it (as these threads so clearly demonstrate), but I'd rather have them teaching science than preaching religion.
