Richard Dawkins and his cohorts support the atheistic campaign to “educate” people regarding the “falsity” of the story behind Christmas.

This is exactly the problem. You are mixing a social, political and religious agenda with science, exactly what the Wedge Document does. Such agendas corrupt the science, see Global Warming.

I want MORE DEBATE, MORE EXCHANGE OF IDEAS, MORE OPEN INQUIRY, NOT SILENCING OF PEOPLE I DISAGREE WITH.

I agree, and that's going on as we speak. The problem is that since creationism and ID have not succeeded in the scientific community on their merits as ideas, their proponents have changed to non-scientific tactics while still pushing them as science.

The Wedge Document was NEVER top secret. I’ve read it as early as when Dr. Philip Johnson authored its first draft and even wrote a book on it.

When was that?

And again I say, if it is NOT DONE USING SCHOOL TIME, there is no basis for firing or dismissing someone.

If you disagree with their agenda, write a tract or column against it, debate them, but please, no academic persecutions.

If that’s your opinion, that’s your opinion. Suffice it to say that These people have the freedom to present what they believe and if a lot of people are convinced that they are right, then so be it. I personally have no problems with it at all.
