FIRST is a program unified by Science, Math, and Engineering, and there is no reason to divide CD users on the basis of non-Science Politics or Religion. I enjoy FIRST's diversity and treatment of religion as a non-issue, so seriously, let's keep Religion a non-issue of FIRST and post somewhere else. I will post and give links to specific religion forums later.
I'd argue that, simply because the debate over how science and religion can coexist is still a big deal to many people. This is much more of a biology topic than it is a physics one - robots don't evolve, after all, and there's no question over who created them - but it's an important issue in science all the same.

I'm not saying that we should be talking about it here...I just think it's worth pointing out that religion DOES go with science because of the vast difference between the two. If that makes sense, that is.
