[/quote] In another thread, jade, you stated that you don't resort to name calling. It is my opinion that the above quote it tantamount to name calling. Stating that the rest of us are "spoon fed by..." is not a very nice way to say whatever you are trying to say. Carl Sagan was a Physicist. He was not really an astronomer, and he certainly wasn't an astrologist. I will assume you just got confused and typed the title wrong. From your second post, I gather that you think that people who are strongly religious doing actual science is unusual and we should be impressed that any religious person would want to investigate science with an open mind. I'd like to point out that the list of scientists with a deep understanding of religeon is far too long to inumerate here (I would also probably make a rather boring read). So, I doubt that anyone else here will get any deep insights from your pointing out that there is a group of religious people engaged in scinetific research. May I ask, what exactly was the point of this thread? What did you expect others to get from the article you posted? It seems to me that the point that DL-44, WebShamon, NoJive, and many others have been trying to make is that [b]you[/b] don't seem to approach any scinetifically derived information with anything that even approaches an open mind. They have asked you numerous times to show facts that will back up your stated beliefs. As far as I have seen you have never provided any evidence to substatiate your statements, nor have you, other than in this thread, given any indication that you believe there is any validity to a scientific point of view. If the point of posting this link was to say to the rest of us, "See it is possible to have both a religious and a scientific view of the universe", my response to you is, "Yes, that's right. That is what a number of people here have been trying to say to you for a long time. Now please bring that view, along with a willingness to back up you next statement with facts, to any other conversation you choose to participate in here." . -- not necessarily stoned... just beautiful.
