And faith has no place in schools or science.

What an odd thing to say.
Of course, "faith", muslim style certainly doesn't, but otherwise faith is at worst charmingly harmless. There's nothing inherently confrontational in the concept and, historically on balance, it has had a beneficent effect on civilization.

Perhaps a better word was religion. Doesn't belong in public schools.

Perhaps I was too subtle.

I was referring to the faith as described by some posters,,that the only way to God is throught Christ, etc, the duty to spread that, the idea that there is one true way and it is theirs. That is what I was objecting to.

That doesn't belong in the public schools. And that is the agenda of the ID people whether they admit it or not.

I don't think it is odd to object to that. I see that as Faith, Muslim stye myself.
