I am simply overwhelmed by the irrationality of this argument !
I'm almost speechless !
People who study science ARE NOT ACTING OR SPEAKING
BASED ON SOMEONE ELSE'S EXPLANATION !!
I see these insinuations frequently on this forum, and I ignore them because they are such utter nonsense, I simply cannot be bothered responding.
I do so now, because I can actually see that someone out there may actually honestly believe that is what is being practiced, (for example, in this forum).
Are you serious ??
The people who partake in the threads I have raised, with whom I clearly resonate with, are not responding purely because someone has told them a story once !!
I'm simply exasperated !!
If anyone seriously believes that this is what is going on here, (or elsewhere in Science), I'm sorry but I have to assert that they would then be coming from blind ignorance, and an overwhelmingly biggoted judgemental delusion !
I apologise for the strong language, but I need to use such language as a metaphor, to emphasise the cavernous gap between faith and science.
Cheers
