He said that?

A senior government official has spoken out to criticise the creeping influence of religion in the public sphere and accused the church of trying to destroy the secular make up of the state. He has also suggested that the church is pressing to "destroy science" and said that continued attempts to force religious education into the schools was an "attack on the state itself". He also said that the church was trying to "claim the right to impose a state ideology".

At last someone is standing up for the secular state imagined by the founders of America! Unfortunately he is in Moscow (Russia not Idaho).
