Faith, like faith in global warming even when you know the evidence is contrived?
The man is right. The global warming, Earth worship cult is destroying science right before our very eyes.
Unquestioned faith in science ruins science.
Yeah, his religious faith made Sir Issac Newton a really crummy scientist all right. This putz couldn’t hold his apple.
Personally, I've never come across any strong and valid, or remotely sufficient, basis for denying evolution (common descent). And I say that having collected an antievolution library of several hundred volumes.
As to global warming, however, don't jump to conclusions. Even if Coyne happens to be an acolyte (I dunno) there are many non-religious types who aren't. I remember waaay back in the early 1990's, long before it became an issue with movement conservatives, the first people I knew of strenuously questioning global warming were "skeptic" groups; the same types who also debunk "psychic" powers, ufology, ghosts, and antievolutionary creationism. These groups (although by no means exclusively so) tend to be dominated by atheists and agnostics.
They (we) were on this before most of you were.
Er, yes, the mass murder schemes hatched by the atheists of the 20th Century really advanced the cause of science, /s
The guy can't be serious.
