Evolutionary fanatics have this in common: inability to look at the world other than through the blinders of Enlightenment science.

Yes. They're so narrow-minded, refusing to accept the vast possibilities offered by pseudoscience.

You misspelled "have this annoying habit of looking at the evidence and following it where it leads, instead of just accepting whatever eleni121 believes".

Hint: The scientific method, in a nutshell, is about doing frequently reality-checks to make sure that your beliefs actually conform with the real world.

I'm sorry if that annoys you, but it's ironic that you would mistake this method for "blinders", when in fact it is exactly the opposite -- it is about LOOKING with honest eyes at what the world *is*, not what we might *wish* to believe.
