It means most scientists will spend eternity in Hell, since most scientists see themselves as intellectuals, and any "religion" is stupid and way too simple for them to comprehend or accept.

Takes the faith of a child, and scientists shy away from that.

Wide is the way and all you know.

However, islam seems to get the pass on that, especially from our crowned "king."

Elizabeth Warren’s lead over Scott Brown narrows to 2 points in WBUR poll

By Noah Bierman, Globe Staff

As Senator Scott Brown and Elizabeth Warren prepare for their second debate tonight, a new poll shows Warren leading Brown by 2 percentage points — 46 percent to 44 percent, with 9 percent undecided in the hotly contested race.

The WBUR/Mass Inc. poll of 504 likely voters taken Sept. 26- Sept. 28 is the seventh of nine surveys taken in September to show Warren, a Democrat and Harvard Law School professor, with a small lead over Brown, a Republican. But the results are well within the poll’s margin of sampling error of plus or minus 4.4 percent.

The same polling group had Warren up by 5 percentage points in a poll taken two weeks earlier, from Sept. 15 through Sept. 17.

Warren’s lead goes up to 4 points in the newest poll from WBUR if the responses of so-called “leaners” are included. These are voters who initially say they are undecided, but express a preference when asked which way they are currently leaning.

The Globe released its own poll Sunday, which showed Warren leading 43-38, with 19 percent of those surveyed saying they remain undecided.
