Part 6 of a 7-part series with Dr. Eugenie C. Scott: Creation Science Brings Religion to the Classroom.
Dr. Scott discusses attempts by the creationist movement to introduce religion into high school science curricula. She makes the point that because we cannot manipulate God as a variable, we cannot be dealing with science.
Recorded at the 'Biology of Genomes' meeting at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, June 1, 2009.

*nods* Science has limits, and God is beyond them. Better then to ignore Him in a classroom or lab.

What will Creation "Science" = Intelligent Design evolve into next? Any guesses?
Maybe a "Godzilla did it" book for the kiddies?

I hate that NOMA shit. Other ways of knowing. Can potentially test whether or not something is designed. Not necessarily 100% certainty (which isn't needed), but more so to the point, it is the people making the claim's job to bring forth evidence. Really shitty that christianity and the like get a free sop to be labeled as a way of "knowing". If their magic man interacts with nature, that means something can be tested. Plus considering how vast nature is, what qualifies as supernatural?

@anubis502502 Excellent stuff. I thoroughly enjoyed this, and I am delighted that I now know of their website. My point was that most people who would normally have contrary viewpoints would find it difficult to post coments that are believable after such an intelligent person presented this information.
