Sounds like a lofty pursuit. Unfortunately your desire to protect science is clouded by a desire simply to promote an agenda for science that fits you most comfortably, and is thus unscientific to begin with.
Protect "science?" Wow! A guardian of truth and knowledge is in our midst; one who would reject the authority of biblical texts in favor of human opinions. I hope you find great reward in protecting science from those who believe organized matter performing specific functions is indicative of an Almighty Creator as attested by the biblical texts. As far as I can tell, your pursuit thus far has made for a fine crank at least.
Just your usual boring ad hominem, Fester. Must be tough to have nothing in your intellectual arsenal but unsubstantiable assertions. I don't know if I could handle feeling that impotent.

The 'authority' of biblical tests was compromised hundreds of yours ago, as soon as we realized the earth was far older than 6000 years. That is not a matter of human opinion. it is a matter of scientific fact. I know you have a policy of keeping yourself ignorant of such matters, but most of us learned as children that simply shutting our eyes doesn't make vanish what we don't want to confront.

I do. In my own small way, I see myself as standing before the gates, keeping the ignorant and the irrational at bay. Stand back, now. If I have to run you through, I'll feel bad about it later. :-)

That's rich, coming from you, a man who is actually proud of his inability to understand simple scientific ideas.
