“Debate on church doctrine and or threads on specific religious matters may be best posted in the religion forum, but the defense of religious freedom, especially against those who wish to deprive us of same belongs front and center on FR....They banned God and prayer and creationism from public schools and public places, but I’ll be damned if they’re gonna ban Him or it from FR!”

Sorry, but as a mod, I can tell you Jim’s permission to post these stories in News/Activism is a directive and was not just implied. You really shouldn’t waste time trying to debate the subtleties of that point.
For the record, instead of quote mining, let’s print the whole comment, even the part about God creating things.....

“I love science. Just like evolution, it’s one of God’s greatest creations. It’s the gift that keeps on giving. God creates everything for a reason. He created you and me. He created GGG, xcamel and all FReepers and placed us all here together on FR for a reason. He even created the duck billed platypus for a reason. Mine is not to question why or even to do or die. To God Be the Glory.”
FWIW, creationists live science as well. We just don’t love the abuse of science for gain of political or ideological ends, or as a weapon with which to bash religion and Christianity and Christians.
