"I don't see why any of this cannot be achieved through secular means."
You have but to admit it is more difficult without the threat of God Punishing you even if no one is watching.
"abortion, stem cell research, homosexuality, slaves, euthanasia, foreign policy or science curriculum "
Of all these, only the Science cirriculum and homosexuality are applicable since euthanasia, Abortion, stem cell research and foreign policy are areas even atheists are divided on.
And what is it about slaves??
Regarding homosexuality, you know many atheists attack them too? go to http://www.sherdog.com . Being Gay is considered derogratory (sp) there and many other forums and places.
As for Science cirriculum, back to the topic of this thread. If my aim is to make more Christians, which it is, I wont mind them not knowing much about evolution. Knowing much about it wont bring much benefits nor happiness anyways, unless you are a scientist, which you will get to know about it in this day and age anyways.
