I found the part with the smug professor to be especially offensive.
Seriously, if you want to criticize science, you should damn well do some better science yourself! Contempt for other viewpoints my ass. More like contempt for people thinking unproven faith should be taught as proven facts.

I have issues when people try to fuse political views with religious ones.  End result is that the political views end up warping the religious views, and then the zeal of the religious side ends up being used to justify the political views.  The religion gets corrupted in the process, and the corrupted thing gets spread by coersive power.  And people of the same religion, who see differently are shut out of the discussion, and people outside that religious faith who may agree with another view of the religious belief, get turned away.
