Some of those names put forth in the Wikipedia article are important and many are relatively obscure. I did not say there were no Christians capable of Science. Newton was a Christian--LOL!

The point is that very few scientists will pretend to accept the books of the OT and the NT as actual history. Clearly, all the biblical books are riddled with childish myths and absurdities and contradictions. Only an idiot would believe there was no rain until after the flood. And no rainbows. Only an idiot would believe in the flood. Only an idiot would believe that Egyptian magicians could create life out of nothing. Only and idiot would believe that dinosaurs are only 6000 years old but that no historian had ever heard of them. Only an idiot would believe that the earth is the same age as the universe--etc. etc. etc.

Listing a few scientists who perhaps follow one or another of the 35,000 Christian sects does not argue against favoring superstition and myth over science. Indeed, it supports my position that there are scientists who favor superstition and myth.

Or do you claim that a 6000 year old earth and language beginning at the "Tower of Babel" is anything other than myth and nonsense??
