I would believe you were attacking a group of people, creationists.

That was also simply part of the original article, not my words. Did you read it all?

More of the article...

Huxley was confident that science, superior to religious belief, could offer something more tangibly enduring than theology.

To those of us who lived through much of the 20th century, witnesses to the atrocities committed in the name of science, Huxley's optimism seems considerably wide of the mark.

So If I say creationists are by and large lovely people; but creationism is a strange and obsolete belief, I'm attacking creationists?

And if I say Darwinism is correct, but Darwinians argue by demeaning and insulting their opponents, I'm not attacking Darwinians?

How odd!
