What kind of wussy quesetion is that? What would you do if a publically funded university refused to accept you because of your race, religion or political philosophy?

You won't get far in science advocating thunder being caused by gods, nor disease caused by evil spirits.

Why do you think your personal idols and demons are any more suitable than those in a scientific setting?

==You won’t get far in science advocating thunder being caused by gods, nor disease caused by evil spirits.

Then how did Darwin’s RM+NS god ever find it’s way into the science classroom?

“You won’t get far in science advocating thunder being caused by gods, nor disease caused by evil spirits.”

STRAWMAN ALERT!!!!

Show me ONE scientist who advocates I.D. who has said anything even remotely close to this.

The facts (circumstantial as they are) that support the concept of evolution don’t come close to being on par with a mathematical certainty like 2+2=4.

Which is worse:

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth and the laws that govern them.

With no cause the universe appeared out of no where for no reason and gave rise to sentient beings who think this is plausible.

"You won't get far in science advocating thunder being caused by gods, nor disease caused by evil spirits."

But apparently you can claim to have a PhD and advocate aliens coming to earth to create life, humans discovering time travel to go back and create themselves and any other wacky notion you can come up with.
