No, it is the "I know more then them pointy-headed geeks" who are arrogant. Researchers do not accept anything as being "without question." You cannot build science on "conventional wisdom" because conventional wisdom may be wrong. That's why research is done.
On the other hand, we have folks like you who seem to know more than the scientists without ever getting off your butt and actually doing any research to support your position. It's oh, so much more easy to sit on the side-lines and carp at those actually doing the work.
Atheist scientists are the new priesthood. They alone know the truth and the way to it. They excommunicate people who disagree with the "truth" and punish and shun people who ask dangerous questions. They control the books that are published and the strictly and gleefully censor ideas they do not like, that threaten their control.
They are coming to be detested. And for good reason.
