Why don't you tell us there are no scientific charlatans?


Of course there are, Jack. They are called creationists.

Stim.

How many "religious people" do you know? How many of them have killed someone, for any reason, let alone for not believing the same thing as they do?

Non personally. Dozens in the news and growing by the minute.

but there certainly are scientists who don't like it when people disagree with them

Absolutely. I don't like it much but I don't go round declaring war on and killing those who do. Neither have, as far as I know, any scientists.

While scientists tend not to declare war, they certainly have used their expertise to make killing easier

Nonsense. There is an old adage that it is a bad workman who blames his tools. But only a complete idiot would blame the man who invented the tool.

Yet you still say that the scientist is as bad as the man who would blow up innocent people for his religion? If so then I think we have nothing further to discuss.
