YIPPIE SKIPPIE! It's so great that there is this book that will tell the entire country how to run their personal lives and also tell science what it can and can not do. Let's not forget how amazing it is that this one book can supersceed and alter the document that founded this country

Bold emphasis mine.

True, bartop, you did not say "unconstitutional", but is not what you are describing above the very definition? You are claiming that Bush is using the Bible to supercede the Constitution. That would be unconstitutional. So without the word being written, I interpretted your meaning as that.

And in rereading that, I note you said that Bush is trying to use the Bible to tell science what it can and can not do. Not exactly. The veto means that no federal money will be used on it, not that the research cannot take place.
