Tried to post this last night, but Mudcat was away......


".....asserting that scientists are totally impartial.."

Pete, Pete, Pete... again... I did not say exactly that! 'Totally' impartial in every way would be a rare person indeed!

One does not need to be **totally** impartial in order to follow good scientific procedures. And importantly, other scientists monitor and check results... whether or not the theory seems to be impartial. There are divergent scientific opinions... but not different rules about what makes good science! In contrast, there are thousands of wildly different ideas about religious 'truths'.
