People have been trying to keep the creation posts off of FR all together, if they fail at that, then the next effort is to “keep them in the religion forum where they belong”.

It fits right in with the mentality of telling people to keep their faith out of the public square, where the Constitution says it's protected.

*Keep it in church or your home, is the mantra, because allowing it to be freely exercised in public is tantamount to the government establishing a religion.*

Biggest bunch of hogwash to hit liberal thinking in decades.

The Constitution does not guarantee a religion free society. It guarantees a politic free religion.

It doesn't protect people from religion, it protects religion from the government.

But that doesn’t work either and for good reason. In both links this message is crystal clear. And if you’re whining about the 10% of the time that creationists are fighting back the liberals that attack creationists 90% of the time, (and that’s being very very generous...)

Right, pointing out that these threads are intentionally kept out of the publicly-viewable Religion forum so both sides can engage in bad behavior is the same as saying you must keep your religion out of public view.

And tpanther, it says a lot that you view anyone who disagrees with you as liberal. Anyone who's viewed GGG's threads knows both sides give it. It most certainly isn't 10%-90%. Can I assume you are one of those who believes you must hold a literal creationist view to be a "true" Christian?

My faith in Jesus Christ is in no way dependent on a literal interpretation of Genesis, any more than it depends on a belief in spontaneous generation or any other discredited theory. Whether evolution turns out to be a correct theory, my belief in Jesus Christ will remain.
