e.g. A counseling client virtually falling down drunk that seriously sobered instantly when I prayed so. I'd not have allowed her to drive home, otherwise.
I was there.
You weren't.
"it's an egregious violation of the rights of Americans to subject students—as young as five—to an authoritative figure such as a teacher who essentially tells them that their faith is wrong." -

1. More I've pondered that evening--the more I think hubby was there. I tended to insist they appear together because that was where the work was. He'd have driven both ways. She was a large lady and tended not to drive much. I was so angry with her for lying to me on the phone and getting me out of bed to deal with her drunk, . . . and her hubby was his mousey self, I didn't pay much attention to him that session, IIRC.
2. IF I'd had occasion, I'd have been comfortable riding with her in her state after prayer. I was trained by the retired head of the Navy's alcohol center. She was stone sober after prayer. Y'all may disbelieve that all you wish.
Anyway--believe what ya will. I was there.
According to a statement on the Pacific Justice Institute’s website, the teaching of science in all of the state’s public schools could create “a hostile learning environment for those of faith.” The institute — which purports to defend “religious freedom, parental rights and other civil liberties” — is challenging the fact that the new science standards do not give equal weight to the Christian creation myth.

Basically . . . I gather you've not tried to publish anything that was solidly built on solid evidence but which disagreed significantly or at all with the cardinal doctrines of the religion of scientism as represented in the peer reviewed professional journals.
There's a ton of stuff about scientism that reeks of religion--and the worst aspects of religion, at that.

As even Stephen Hawkings asserts . . . reality is far, far, far, far stranger than most folks CAN imagine . . .

imho, you will live to see the day when the evidence on many street corners and even in the globalist controlled media will leave that perspective in shredded tatters.

You are welcome to maintain your death grip on that perspective as long as you wish.
