Since the Temple of Darwin relies on force to stifle debate, force will be required to reopen the debate. But I must admit, I rather enjoy the thought of you being constantly plagued by your worst fears as this process unfolds.

Are you going to use traditional methods to force your theocracy, pitchforks and torches, or are you going to emulate your major competitors and go straight to beheadings?

Jokes aside, it looks like the best bet to get evilution out of text books is in the power of Texas to influence content. That worked for almost fifty years.

Which one will cause you to lose more sleep?

Or a theocracy could give us this.....

When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

Tell me, was it atheistic thinking that gave us the government we have today, or Christian thinking?

And what shall we say of the track record of atheistic regimes as far as silencing dissent? Ones headed by the likes of Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, Kim Jung-il?

What can we say about the state of science under them? How did the atheistic mindset benefit science there?

Be careful what you wish for.
