No such thing as a creationist scientist. You can explore creationism from a scientific angle I suppose but of course you would find the idea wanting. This thread started with claiming, somewhat silly, that telling religious types to keep their hobby to themselves is a hobby in its own right. Very clever and very circular. Judging by your own standards is the more sanctimonious side of those who assert a view. Joe is right in saying people don't like to be called fundamentalist and I see the point. However, belief surely requires a mental leap beyond logic and that in itself lends itself to a fundamental view. Anything less questions your overall Creed. I suspect that we mean saliva throwing Bible thumping bigotry when we say fundamental yet asserting tales as true requires what? Rational thought?
