Well, look at it this way. China, North Korea, former Soviet Union, et al are atheistic countries, and won't even allow religions. China does allow religions only if they are sanctioned by China, but they are pseudo religions. Real religions need to go underground.
What the evolution people don't want is even a hint that there is a God.
That is why anti-religion and anti-God groups, like the ACLU, are fighting against Intelligent Design being taught side by side with the evolution THEORY. They don't want students to decide for themselves.
Do we want history to repeat itself, and the same thing to happen in our country, like what happened in other countries.
And now Newdow wants to take our national motto, "In God We Trust" off our money.
Don't you see what is happening?
And it's all being done under the guise of freedom of religion.
"Well, look at it this way. China, North Korea, former Soviet Union, et al are atheistic countries, and won't even allow religions."
FWIW, former USSR is now Russia and they do allow religion (Russian Orthodox) openly.
"What the evolution people don't want is even a hint that there is a God."
That is a false generalization. Many people believe in both God and evolution. I am one of them.
Given the choice of taking "God" off our money and teaching that the earth is 6000 years old I would have to side with taking God off our money.
You certainly like saying that, despite it being, at best, a painting done with a very broad brush, and a worst, an outright lie.
But two can play that game ... I've heard of a Muslim supporting ID, so I guess I'll go with:
Supporters of ID and creationism are pushing for the U.S. to become a Muslim nation.
See how stupid that sounds?
Possibly correct, but it's not why SCIENTISTS are against them being taught side by side. Scientists know that we don't want students deciding for themselves what predominant scientific theory is ... as there is only one predominant theory. The others are currently footnotes at best ... wishful thinking in some cases, which may EVENTUALLY be shown to have good evidence, but currenlty have no evidence that doesn't also back up TOE.
Unless you want alternatives taught as they would in a math class ... "Most people think 2+2 = 4. Some think it equals 5, but they are fools."
or ... "Someone sued the schoool, and we now must say that it MIGHT BE invisible space pixies pressing us down, and not gravity. He has solid evidence for this theory, he says, such as the fact that most scientists do not support his theory, so they must be afraid of it."
Bah.
