From my reading of the section the bill "regard to employment or academic support, a faculty member or student based on the faculty member ’s or student ’s conduct of research relating to the theory of intelligent design" it seems to be more about making universities support research into ID. So a faculty member or student cannot have funding for a project denied due to it being about ID.
So a weak idea can be treated as a true theory, and already stretched university funds will have to be squandered.
Does that sound like a different opinion or trying to push an agenda you condescending Anonymous Coward.

If one changes all the occurrences of "Satanism" and "Occultism" to "pedophilia" and "child abuse" the article makes more sense.
