A math Phd that I work with, a liberal and atheist, is particularly motivated to help the Democrats and hates Bush because he thinks that Bush will force his kids to pray in school and learn about Christian creationism in science class.
There are enough bogus reasons for liberals to work for Democrats already, without creationists waving another red flag in front of the bull. Creationism in public schools will serve no purpose, because it can be taught in churches all anyone can want. Teaching creationism doesn't stop another abortion. Teaching creationism doesn't make better Hollywood movies. All creationism is, is an emotional issue that a few people have seized on to make a living with. That's it. It doesn't improve any Christian's lives, solves nothing, doesn't put a single terrorist in jail or bring another person to Jesus (indeed, chases them away, as it did me).
That some people just don't get this, or don't care, just amazes me.
This is not about Democrats, or liberals, or "real conservatives", this is about the individual's right to mold his own's childrens religious beliefs.
I can pick the preacher, but I can't pick the religious beliefs of the public school science teacher, and the State sure as hell can't set religion as a job requirement.
So I want the public school science teacher to enjoy his right to freedom of belief, and I want him/her/undecided to keep their thoughts on the subject of Biblical creation to themselves.
Let the minister/preacher/priest/rabbi/etc of my choice handle that.
Then WHY, in God's name, are you FIGHTING it so???
