its banned because of the law. They say it. Posters here argue it.
First the law must be revoked before it can and you can claim creationism is banned because of its lack of substance.
You are talking about the court decisions that affirm that Creationism is NOT science and that claiming Creationism or Intelligent Design are scientific is a lie and an attempt to introduce religion into science classes?
Would you say that the belief that GOD exists and created the universe more rational than Biblical Creationism?
I think that I understand your point (as I understand it to be) that beliefs should never be a basis of law. Freedom of belief is the only exception, and would go for all beliefs.
Would a belief that God created the universe Ex Nihilio drive people away from acceptance of said philosophy in the pool of reality?
