It’s an intresting article, but I don’t agree with that last conclusion; “religious institutions can make terrible mistakes based on their beliefs, so secular institution should be preivileged?”… we should prove that secular institution are not to make terrible mistakes based on their beliefs, that is, their ideology, their economic model, whatever. Even their scientific advice !
I insist, is a good point that we should be careful about that thin line you talk about, but the conclusion is just… ¿fallacious? (sorry about my english, hehe. I hope I made my point… either you agree or not.)

Perhaps the initial heated reactions have cooled off, and conservatives have realized that Harry Potterâ??s success is just something theyâ??ll have to live with. Or perhaps the depth and detail of the Harry Potter world is now too large to be digested into a simple anti-magic rhetoric. And yet, perhaps the most fascinating similarities between Jesus Christ and Harry Potter continue to be largely ignored â?? some of which were only revealed in the final book. Although these similarities are explored on many blogs and websites, experts disagree about the related implications.To get into more detailed information visit:

I’d just add that he’s not just a religious lunatic who cites rainbows as evidence (harmless); he’s also the chairman of the U.S. Energy Subcommittee on Environment and Economy (harmful).

Problem solved.

And explain which “entire group of people who are facing monumental upheavals in their life” you think he’s talking about?

[Spam link to icky religious site removed by editor. Don’t like me editing your comments? That’s easy to fix. Go away and complain about it for the rest of your worthless life on some other blog.]

What’s the big deal if you use a scientific forum to dishonestly attack an entire group of people who are facing monumental upheavals in their life? Hey, if you get to fantasize about them being selected against because you’re just those kinds of people, why would polluting science in the process bother you?

So you’re not going to admit what you did, but I’m going to keep coming back here and checking on what you write. Every time you lie, I post about it. So you can keep wishing people would die if you want, just be honest about why you’re doing it.
