Be that as it may, Collins himself reveals his dismay in the article over the shrill voices of the anti-God agenda within the science community have dominated the stage for over 20 years. Here is his quote:
"One of the great tragedies of our time is this impression that has been created that science and religion have to be at war, said Collins, 56.--I dont see that as necessary at all and I think it is deeply disappointing that the shrill voices that occupy the extremes of this spectrum have dominated the stage for the past 20 years.
Collins has quite obviously felt the bitterness of the ostracizing arrows sent his way by the anti-God extremists within his own community to make such a powerful and emotional statement as he did. The anti-God extremists in the science community have "Dominated the stage for 20 years"; that's one very powerful statement that really says it all.
From the article: the guy's 56 now and he's believed in God since age 27. No one is claiming it happened any earlier than that.
"Compulsive liar?" Vocabulary would not seem to be the issue here. I bet you don't have the integrity to apologize to Ichneumon.
Tut tut, we're not supposed to use "the L-word" here.
Collins references more than one extreme. Besides the handful of scientists who politicize their discipline in the interest of ridiculing metaphysical considerations there is a handful of people who disparage the work of science altogether just because (on certain occasions) it does not necessarily incorporate them.
Then you find Ann Coulter repulsive, eh? Here's one of her lies for you, out of many.
