Dear FRiend in Texas,
Please forgive me for excluding the /s in my comment. I made the mistaken assumption that my sarcasm was evident without the redundancy of a sarcasm tag.

Forgive my continuing ignorance, but do scientists such as yourself acknowledge logic & reasoning? You managed to cram more Ad Hominem attacks into your post than I've encountered on FR - and that is quite an achievement considering I de-lurked here at FR a mere 19 days before you (I lived in NH at the time - so you can be sure that Drumbo knows Massholes).

Trollish personal attacks don't usually provoke a response from me, but I take considerable offense that you accuse my levity of disrespecting our Creator. That insult is intolerable as I said nothing about The Creator and again I point to the fallacy in your logic (e.g. an off-topic red herring). I admit that I disrespect the bumper crop of junk science "consensus" with it's long history of revisionism, but as a knuckle-dragging neanderthal (or is it Piltdown? -- I get those two mixed up), perhaps I should leave off comments on threads where big brains and and superior intellects take ignorant dogmatists such as myself to the woodshed of name-calling and insults.

When Stephen Hawking (whom afaik is a "genuine scientist") states with "100% certainty" that "God does not exist", I assume he is exercising his infallible elitist scientificness (after all, "100% certainty" doesn't leave much wiggle room, but I could be wrong as Mr. Hawking has been in the past when he reverses himself). The "Gorebull Wahrumists" of the settled science club you mentioned and the 40-year scientific consensus on Piltdown Man before it was found to be a hoax, were exactly the kind of junk science I was referring to in my cynical post. I sense we are on the same side, but you need to find a sense of humor. After accusing me of "disrespecting our Creator", wishing me "a blessed day" seems hypocritical, but of course ymmv.

Just for clarity, I was agreeing with you as the original poster of the quote.
