Misunderstanding God AND science has been aptly illustrated via the results of the godless agenda.

Which has yet to be addressed, from unobjectivity to homosexuality to vacuous excuses.

Which begs the question, if what you say is true, why the need to sue anyone into silence if a theory can withstand peer review then?

I think we all know the answer to that.

btw...how is it law is allowed to influence science but religion is off limits?

Whose Godless agenda?

The agenda of most Scientists is Science, and most Scientists in the USA are people of faith. They and I do not in any way shape or form have a Godless agenda. In fact many of us think that an intellectual exploration of creation does glory to God.

Why the need to sue? The parents at Dover didn't want their kids to be taught shoddy theology in the name of Science, preferring that their children be taught actual Science as it is understood by Scientists.

As to why Science and religion are treated differently by the law, as all Conservatives, we should look to the Constitution.

From the 1st Amendment: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof

Article 1, Section 8, line 8: (Congress shall have the power...) To promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, by securing for limited Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their respective Writings and Discoverie
