I don't really get it. What is this kind of propaganda supposed to achieve? The message is 'have faith in science, my children' which seems to directly condradict what has been rendered the secondary point, that faith can't reliably explain the natural world. Maybe it would have been more acurately titled 'the pseudo-rationalist cult anthem'.

 

It just comes across as being more about having the right kind of faith, which is pretty much guaranteed to piss a lot of people off and further entrench them in their positions. So in pushing this agenda so agressively there is a potential decrease in quackery to be weighed against a potential increase in social division. It just seems unnecesary when education will probably do the job in the long term, and with fewer anti-science nutcases produced as a result.
