“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!”

This is the “defense of religious freedom”??
I see they’re looking at sciencey stuff and baselessly claiming it’s false because it doesn’t fit the Bible....looks like an attack on your religiou freedom to me.
I see another attack on a scientifically based hypothesis, using the Bible...baselessly claiming the science fits the Bible in a ludicrous comparison that is merely small world skin-deep thinking. That must be “defending religious freedom.”
I see quote mining of commentary of a research paper...this must be “defending religious freedom.”
I see the wiping out of an entire field of science...of course that’s “defending religious freedom.”
I see the perversion of entomology and microbiology to match the Bible... must be “defending religious freedom.”
Someone deserves a medal for all this “defending” going on.
