Reading their letters and the First Amendment of the US Constitution, I infer that this nation's founders noted that religions have been at the center of great deal of trouble, so they precluded the US government from getting involved in religion, i.e. "... shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..." Over the centuries, various religions have laid claim to various morals; consider the difficulties outsiders are having today in the Middle East, for example.
Bill NyeScience is the key to our future, and if you donโt believe in science, then youโre holding everybody back. And itโs fine if you as an adult want to run around pretending or claiming that you donโt believe in evolution, but if we educate a generation of people who donโt believe in science, thatโs a recipe for disaster. We talk about the Internet. That comes from science. Weather forecasting. That comes from science. The main idea in all of biology is evolution. To not teach it to our young people is wrong.
