Musket Says (27 Mar 14 - 04:42 AM):If wallowing in ignorance is the greatest thing we can know, such a statement can only support not questioning scripture, as it allows the god delusion to maintain a foothold in perceived reality. The only thing I can learn from religion from a scientific angle is the need for scientific approach to be clear, unequivocal and factual. Any deviation from that opens the door for superstition to question reality, and that is a backward step.
Musket's warning against "any deviation" sounds amazingly like the rigidity of the born-again fundamentalists. Too bad he's so afraid about being a bit more open-minded and tolerant....and respectful of the thinking of others.
