<That not all are is not an issue to me.>
Well, it is to me, since that's the way it came across in your beginning argument. I disagree that there is ANY cabal (rather I'd argue "group think" or "madness of crowds" type phenom), but I'd reather not argue.
<And I explained that I'm interested in the popular conception of science, not just your take on it. >
Of course, but then again, be aware that "science" isn't some black helicopter crowd looking to manipulate anyone. That's all, both you and Greg or e insinuated such, that there was some sort of "scientific community" that had an aethiest agenda. It would behoove you, partly in the name of truth, and partly so that you don't look wacko to be specific with those type of statements.
Further, as has been beaten to death, own up to the other side of the coin... a side that some scientists react against... those that actually do believe "evolution" is some evil and god made the world in 7 days AND they are pushing their agenda. You can't judge either without the greater context of both.
