science is the latest attempt at explaining the world around us, but not the first. there has been many creation story's- for instance the Greeks believed every thing we are and everything around us started as a shapeless chaos and the chaos itself was the first god and gave itself shape and order to create everything. yet it is only in the latest attempt that we have finally started making sense of the chaos around us. so yes research, experiment and question the words of old that we may someday grasp firmly onto the curtain and view the controls, there my yet be a wizard hold onto them.
And yet we tolerate those who pray in schools and tolerate swearing witnesses in with a religious text.

The Government of the United States is in no sense founded on the Christian religion.

We must conduct research and then accept the results. If they don't stand up to experimentation, Buddha's own words must be rejected.

We must respect the other fellow's religion, but only in the sense and to the extent that we respect his theory that his wife is beautiful and his children smart
then what do you call a catholic who's stubborn, slow and scared?

He that will not reason is a bigot; he that cannot reason is a fool; he that dares not reason is a slave
I instead tell people 'go ahead believe as you may, just don't pray too loud as I have more important things to do.'

I'd love to see more open discussion brought in by our "leaders(?)" viz-a-viz atheism. Far too many are closet atheists, preferring instead to toe the party line and not rock the ark.
