Since he was quoting Science magazine, "physicists privately are hoping the new ultraexpensive atom smashers won't find the ultimate elementary particle," you must think all the scientist that magazine represents are "delusional idiots," as well.

You might be right, actually, since science has stopped doing science and has resorted to promoting some sort of "scientific agenda" which persecutes anyone who attempts to question it. Think global warming, psychology, evolution, etc. etc. etc. (I'm an atheist, by the way. I do not believe in intelligent design--to much of it is absurd to be intelligent--nor in any current explanation of evolution, which is equally absurd, and totally with evidence.)

Yes, I do. The mainstream magazines like Science and Nature are ridiculously inaccurate. I can't even browse them any more because of all their mistakes. To say physicists don't want to find the Higgs boson with the current generation of accelerators is absurdly ridiculous. The one thing that everyone should know by now is that there will always be more physics to discover. Just prior to Einstein, parents were advising their children to not go into physics because it was all solved....Whoops.

Interesting you say this. As a physicist, I can say that a significant percentage of my secular peers also think of evolution (and consequently much of biology) as pseudoscience. The vast majority think the formal Intelligent Design movement is also ridiculous, but many think there must have been some higher power involved in some way.
