Always admire these empty cut & pastes in every case end up omitting the juiciest parts, like forgetting those theologians which ran Inquisitions for 400yrs all the way up to 1830.

"For the scientist ...he is about to conquer the highest peak; as he pulls himself over the final rock, he is greeted by a band of theologians who have been sitting there for centuries."

Yes, sitting there scribbling in the sand is a pretty good description, any prehistoric hunter gatherer could figure out the tree grows from acorn, rivers have sources, there is cause & effect and all things have beginnings. The amusing part comes in when they thought this meant much, they could now claim to have abilities to cast spells & miraculous powers like raising the dead,but essentially were all clueless pretenders.
