What I said was: "Being a Christian does not mean you are bad. In modern times, it simply means you are (usually) rather uneducated and naive--and that you favor superstition and myth over Science." This does not imply that no Christians are scientists nor that all scientists are exemplary and without superstitious weaknesses. Even when a Christian is a scientist, he clearly retains a fondness for superstition and myth. As just one of thousands of examples...modern, rational people do not believe in the demon theory of medicine. This is a Christian belief--and a superstitious and ridiculous belief anchored in our ignorant pre-scientific past.
