Not everyone is as gullible as you seem to believe.
I'm not convinced of that after watching most of the atheists and evolutionists here kiss the feet of a handful of scientists who post here over the past few years; they believe everything they say! To me, that's a very dangerous thing, especially when the whole reason for starting this thread was because a very "respected and published" scientist was caught LYING, CHEATING, and generally being a bad guy. And what of his textbooks that are still in circulation in our major universities and institutions?
Have you noticed that the most vocal scientists here are atheists? Have you noticed that the evo's hang on their every word and run with anything they say? It's sad, really, when one chooses to let someone else do the thinking for them.
