I think this is really a non issue. Unless one can provide the evidence that somehow a “creationist” point of view is interfering with his ministry, then I say, “So what?” Seriously, where are we going with this? What’s next, witch hunts? Let’s ferret out all secret subscribers to Belief X, which for whatever reason, then becomes demonized. Or, hey, lets’ have “loyalty tests” — yeah, that’s the ticket! gotta swear to upholding Religion X prior to entering public office — is that where this is headed? Only, in today’s political climate, instead of declaring loyalty to a religion, one needs to declare oneself an Atheist…then, everything’s OK..(and that’s what passes for “tolerance” in Canada).
