" Of course Creationism is scientifically wrong but does it really matter that much if some people believe and preach it? It's not as if we've been silenced after all - in fact we are the majority."

as if it were not scientifically wrong, in the public schools. At this point, though, it all goes political, so I'll just stop right here.
