A Kansas School Launches An Attack Against The Secular Atheist Establishment

Once again I am addressing the non-establishment of religion clause and the free exercise of religion. First Benjamin Kang Lim and Chris Buckley bring us the story via the Reuters News Service of China whom has fully established Atheism as the state religion and regulates the practice of any other. In this case a minister and his family were sentenced to jail for the unauthorized publication of the Christian bible and other Christian publications.

In the United States atheism is not as fully established as the state religion as it is just forced on our school aged children and the personal of their schools. A Kansas school board has fought back and attempter to apply the Constitution practice of no religious test to their biology course on evolution. Their story is mentioned in the Associated Press by John Hanna whom states the following giving me the impression he disproved of the boards action.

In addition, the board rewrote the definition of science, so that it is no longer limited to the search for natural explanations of phenomena.

It is strange because I was always taught that science was defined as a branch of knowledge based on logic, objectivity and involving observation and experimentation and not a search for "natural" explanation or phenomena as such a view would be biased and thus non-objective.

On the other hand the board decision is objective as well as Constitutional since it allows both the equally valid atheistic hypothesis of random chance mutation and the theist hypothesis of intelligent directed mutation to be taught.
