But, that's not how the theory works. And, I'm not going to argue it here. Those who have chosen to take a hard position on it are not generally open to a discussion. I am not going to challenge you on your belief or treat you with contempt for believing so. I'd appreciate the same.
It is not my intention to ever treat anyone with contempt and of course you can interpret the data any way you wish. I hope you do not think I was being contemptuous, I recognize reasonable adults can disagree. What bothers me is a group of scientists with a mission (disproving God, proving global warming etc) can start a culture of politically correct thinking around their belief system with very little hard proof, then ostracize and belittle those who dont join the cult.
If "scientists" are honest, much of what I was taught in medicine in school 35 years ago has since proven incomplete or frankly untrue. There is very little "settled science" and those who do not go with the popular culture of the day are neither ignorant nor uneducated.
Scientific culture tends to be a bully system much like the judicial system in this country. And I am more than happy to discuss science with anyone. You will not change my mind on my religious beliefs and you are unlikely to change my mind on how I interpret the available data, but I am always willing to discuss. That is how I learn and sharpen my beliefs.
