Oh wait: bio - scientists ... the PhD types .. they are not suseptible to such temptations about money. And fame...

Boy are you anti-science. I guess you never took advantage of any of the technological acheivements in the last 100 years that arose from science. Either that or you got poor grades in science and now want to bash the heck oout of the people that do this sort of thing for a living. Yes, they are human like everyone else and they have their share of flaws, but that does not give you the right to bash them for spending almost a decade studying some very advanced subjects that most people would not be able to understand. Almost all of the scientist that have ever lived are alive today. Yet there is a great reluctance on the part of many people to actually talk to real, live scientists to even understand what science is and what they do. There is an incredible amount of knowledge out there that people like you don't even consider to be of relevance or importance even though that knowledge is the foundation for how we live today.

The idea of the 'trust us' mentailty is far removed from the truth. If you don't want to believe what scientists say, you are free to conduct your own research and publish your own results. Science encourages study and verification. Science is very open. The outrage scientists show results from people without even the slightest education of background trying to criticize somehting they haven't even educated themselves on. That's why I've posted repeatedly that ID will be the death of science. You have to throw out all of science in order for ID to be scientifically valid.

"Science is very open."

I like how totally sincere you sounded when you wrote this part.

I'm not anti science. I simply take a pretty dim view of Bioscientists, priests would be a better descriptor for this lot, most of whom are profoundly leftist in outlook.
