Yes, your essay did make your position on religion clear, and was a good read as well. Thanks again for that
And we do agree on limiting the influence of religion in secular, and especially political, affairs. So do not think that we are at odds over this. Like I said, I am only playing Devil's Advocate.
I was more interested to see what methods you would use to keep religion out of schools, politics, and public life in general. Looking back, I communicated this poorly. Sorry for that.
So, what do you think? Any public policies you would favor? And would you be politically opposed to creationism being taught in private schools?
