Avocationist.....I can understand your concern....but you seriously misunderstand
We are concerned about Religion overstepping its boundaries...and getting involved in Politics and Science.
I fear creation science for the same reason that I fear a theocracy. I can always argue against a scientific idea....if there is an alternative and rational idea. Just as I can always debate in the political sphere. The problem is that in religion...there is not much room for debate. Granted, some religions allow a little bit of leeway. Fundamentalists, however, always seem to grab the power.
Secular science isnt trying to claim moral superiority...they just fear religious encroachment into the sphere of science. If you dont believe that this is a very logical position, I invite you to investigate the theocracies of the middle east....then please reply with an explanation of how they maintain a perfectly healthy and strong scientific and political system....despite the involvement of the theocracy.
