Very well put DcMG.

Below is a link to an interview with Neil deGrasse Tyson, famous astronomer who will be the host of the current remake of the series "The Cosmos" around the 18-19 minute mark he discusses religion and science and talks about Newton being a person "of his time" from a slightly different and IMHO very interesting perspective. I'm thinking of starting a thread about the interview. But I haven't seen it all yet.
