You nailed it. #7. Post a science-relatecd thread and the luddites come out of the woodwork. No one can just discuss science anymore on this forum; to do so one must run the gauntlet of those who think any biological research is the devil's work.

Fortunately, there are places things like this can be discussed without wading through this kind of crap.

This increasingly grates, yes. Like a rock in a shoe. Like an itch you can't scratch. It doesn't even have to be biology. It can be geology. It can be cosmology or astronomy. It can even be physics.

That this recurring freak show is such a predictable feature of life here says something unpleasant about the demographics. So does that current FR poll.
