allmendream”Creationists never seem to shut up, so who the heck is suing them to silence?”

tpanther”where ARE the lawsuits to silence algore’s hot air cult? string-theorists? multiverse-theorists?”

Not to mention “warped passages.”

I don’t recall that you’ve ever said that lawsuits have been successful in silencing “Creationists” (that is, Christians). It seems to me that you and many others (Hi! metmom) have been identifying various ways (lawsuits being one) that attempts are being incessantly made to silence Christians. The difference is not difficult to discern. It cannot be attributed to a failed effort to understand, made by hopelessly confused, conscientious thinkers. The answer must be found elsewhere. Perhaps it is a question of sincerity and intellectual honesty?

Telling a “cdesign proponentist” that they cannot teach their particularly peculiar religious beliefs in public school is not “silencing” them, unless you feel they have a right to have their religious views taught in public school.

Do you think any religious group has the “right” to teach their beliefs in public school? Which ones, and based upon what criteria?

Not to mention the point was allmendream keeps demanding science always be natural or measurable or testable...but we don't see him spending any time whatsoever trying to silence, let alone even criticize all these others that do no such thing.

As several have pointed out time and again, it's got little to do with science and everything to do with multiple hang-ups with God.
