This is code, meant to imply the President Bush and his administration are a bunch of religious zealots who will ramrod right-wing religious polices (anti-abortion, anti-gay-marriage, etc.). It is first and foremost meant to unify and activate the Democrat Party whack-job base. Next intended to fool the masses. IMO, the Bush Admin should counter with a well publicized, pro-science and exploration policy statement.
Pseudo-Science (that which calls itself science, but fails to adhere to the scientific method) has become the religion of the humanist. Funny how they demand separation of church and state - except when it is their church. Then they not only demand endorsement of their faith, but the power to rob you to fill their offering plates.
