The author qualified his remarks with “we are repeatedly told” and thus did not “get it wrong.”

Yes, I agree. The author quotes others on this issue, he does not assert it.

"The term “doubting Thomas” well illustrates the difference. In science, a healthy skepticism is a professional necessity, whereas in religion, having belief without evidence is regarded as a virtue. "

I think I understand English well enough to point out that "doubting" Thomas did not take his faith w/o evidence. Like many commentors on science/religion the author doesn't understand the very foundational elements of Christianity.

St Paul says test EVERYTHING w/ reason and logic.

The author got his point on St Thomas exactly wrong.
