"For some it is. "
Only to creationists. The ToE is a scientific theory just as every other scientific theory is. None use the supernatural as an explanation.
" As soon as ToE rejects, in principle ID, it becomes a religion in it's self."
No, it because like every other scientific theory.
Saying it is a religion till you're blue in the face will never make it one.
(BTW, why do you have this animosity towards religion?)

" No, it because like every other scientific theory." Rather, it becomes like every other theory.

The problem were running into is ToE, assumes a random origin. However, evolution is not one theory, but a set. Many of which simply stick to what can be observed, and deductive reasoning. Others assume random origins of life, and according to Webster (def 4), is pretty easily argued as religion.

I have no problem with religion, I have a problem with the 1st amendment and public funds used to enforce the religions of Atheism and Materialism over Christianity and Judaism.
