It's fine if you want to think that creationism (or, by extension, any school of thought that questions Darwinism) is a fringe movement, but if it's official establishment policy to stamp it out, even when it has little to nothing to do with the subject under consideration for a grant, then it's pretty much a self-fulfilling prophecy to say that it's a fringe movement.

I never suggested or even implied such a thing. I said you can't get creationist 'research' funded. Grants undergo peer-review. No group of active biological researchers is going to positively review a grant proposing reserch that rejects evolution.
