I was a golf professional for a while and enjoyed everything about it. Many people thought I was a clown for wasting my time chasing a little white ball and teaching people to do the same. Improving peoples golf game is very rewarding, but it doesn't improve their character because of their improvement.

A person getting out and walking the course more often, because they enjoy playing better golf, may even extend their life many years. Entertaining and sometimes helpful just like Science.

A right perspective has more effect on a persons character than knowledge. Principled decisions have nothing to do with knowledge or science.

Yeah, science and golf...the same thing, really.

What was it that Twain said? "Science is a nice creation myth...SPOILED!" Or something like that.

Sadly, the attitude of some scientists.
