So far, this is the smartest thing I’ve read on the whole debate
I
can’t think of a worse way to make science more attractive than by a
stepped-up attack on God, ghosts and the Loch Ness monster. People
perceive (correctly) that "skeptic" types (a group which, in my
experience, has minimal overlap with real scientists) use science as a
club to attack the sensibilities of others and aggrandize themselves. I
want people to think of science as something that makes the world
richer and fuller, not thinner and bleaker.
I would really like all the creationists and big-E evolutionists to just STFU. Good advice for some of those wacky supersymmetry theorists, too.
