Your chemist James Tour is attributed to the following commentary : Only a rookie who knows nothing about science would say science takes away from faith. If you really study science, it will bring you closer to God

He says its a difficult leap of faith from micro to macro evolution but accepts micro evolution as fact and Francis Collins knows quite a little more about all the DNA data they are accumulating now than this chemist so stop being a rookie, rookie.

He also states rookie:

To those who "are disconcerted or even angered that I signed a statement back in 2001" he responded "I have been labeled as an Intelligent Design (ID) proponent. I am not. I do not know how to use science to prove intelligent design although some others might. I am sympathetic to the arguments on the matter and I find some of them intriguing, but the scientific proof is not there, in my opinion. So I prefer to be free of that ID label."

stupid rookie...try again
