In a similar move to protect the public, the Library of Congress just told
churches they aren't allowed to read from their bible until god is proven
to exist.  Unfortunately most of what churchians hoped to use for evidence
is contained in their book.

Oh right, separation of Church and State...  but the State still controls
Science, eh?  damn.

Seems the NSA has a right to our activity information while the FDA has
some right to our genetic information.

Perhaps 23andMe can just reincorporate as a religious institution and claim
the testing equipment is some form of sacrament process?

Yes, I'm being facetious... and perhaps rude/mildly offensive about it.
 Sorry 'bout that.
