To be blunt, widespread ignorance of the Constitution and its history among pro-ID factions in our public learning institutions, particularly ignorance of what the Constitution actually indicates about our religious freedoms, is the reason that anti-ID factions are getting away with stifling religion-related discussions in public schools in the first place, in my opinion.
This post (<-click), while addressing a 10 Commandments issue, helps to explain why anti-ID factions have been able to lever the USSC's perversions of our religious freedoms to sweep ID discussions under the carpet.
The bottom line, as mentioned in the referenced post, is that the people need to reconnect with the Founder's division of federal and state powers, particularly where the wrongly ignored 10th A. power of the states to address religious issues is concerned, power now limited by the honest interpretation of the 14th Amendment. The people then need to get in the faces of renegade justices, the Oval Office and the Senate and do a major spring cleaning where government respect for our religious freedoms is concerned.
Thanks for the link to your other post and for the information learned there.

Excellent suggestions.
Agree.
However, the issue about the expuslsion of any scientist and/or professor and/or public school science teacher who even slightly hints that either there are problems with evolution or tht Intelligent Design is a better explanation for the evidence discovered in whatever the field of science.... than random mutations x time x natural selection.....actually is about academic / scientific FREEDOM of inquiry.
IN essence the issue is about truth and the freedom to pursue truth as it is uncovered in the scientific realm.
Such freedom does not exist today in academia / scientific elitist circles.
The socalled scientists whose minds are closed to anything but evolution to explain where living things and the cells and molecules which make them up came from and how they developed......have become the inquisitors of today, the tyrants of the elite of today.
They are such and they know it and they understand that they must “keep the faith” in evolution going because the ultimate fear is that when and if any doubts - based on FACTS as these scientists/professors have wanted to pursue or just to DISCUSS - about the validity of Darwinism / evolution are ALLOWED to seep in...their power will finally collapse.
Thank you for your comments.
First we have to get over the idea that tne New Deal "substantial effects" doctrine enables Congress to exercise authority over even the most mundane aspects of our lives as an exercise in "regulating commerce" that is superior to any individual rights of the people or power reserved to the States.
