Well Don, you said it before me and much more eloquently that I could come up with at the moment.

No anger here, olddude. What I'm about is that I am very much a science and mathematics junkie, and I don't like to see someone dipping into carefully selected scientific information, ignoring anything that might contradict a pet idea, and then making use of "cherry-picked" data to attempt to lend authenticity to some system of pure mysticism.

And that goes for any organized and marketable mystical system, especially one that can be marketed to the ignorant and gullible.

I object just as much to such things as "intelligent design," and attempt by Creationists to lend scientific weight to their religious ideas.

You're also more polite.

Instead of mysticism, I would have said gibberish ...
