" It is a debate of science vs. religion. The worldviews are entirely different, as is the evidence vs. the belief.

That does not make for a very productive debate."

and so because of that we silence one side of the debate?

That's a tactic used by our dimocratic cousins. Not Free thinking men and women.

The Truth is always the truth and if you deny it speech then you become part of the problem, not the solution.

No one's "silencing one side of the debate". They're just as belligerently vocal as ever.

That's a tactic used by our dimocratic cousins. Not Free thinking men and women.

Which is why we don't do that.

The Truth is always the truth and if you deny it speech then you become part of the problem, not the solution.

I agree.

Hint: The court rulings preventing violations of the First Amendment are not "silencing" anyone, you're still just as free to mouth off as before. All those were about was keeping religious indoctrination out of public schools.

I'm gonna agree and disagree with your post.

We shouldnt cut off the debate.

However a large part of the debate involves science and religion.

When the religionists deduce science, they're in error. And when the scientists infer religion, they're in error.

Seeing the difference between the two errors, and avoiding them would greatly help.

And that should be part of the debate.
