How many people have died in the "name of science"?

Name just one, if you can. You can't do it. Only a fool would attempt to
do so.

You're no scientist. Go back to the Nunnery...

I seem to be missing the quantifiers in the posting on my ng server,
maybe they got omitted when your posting got transferred across the net.
Did your original posting say "Some Bible scholars"? And in the case
of your last fact(oid) (= that "they" believe it is the center of the
universe), did you perhaps say "some Bible scholars who have been dead
for 500 years"?

For that matter, I've never heard any Bible scholar express the opinion
that life was unique to Earth, although I've heard some say that perhaps
the opposite is true. ("Perhaps", because they didn't want to be
dogmatic.) But maybe you limit your input from Bible scholars to late
night TV.

Life on Mars, what does it mean? It means the fundamentalist religious
fanatics, who have done everything in their power to set Science back 2
thousand years, have lost the war of Science Vs. Religion. The victory
belongs to Science. Down with the heathen religious lies that have
stifled human progress for far too long. Good riddance to bad garbage,
the false religions! Long live the Sciences!

We at the IES knew all along that Science would defeat the hypocritical
religious heresies that have for too long stifled human advancement. I
say all the hideous religious myths should be thrown on the ash heap of
hisory and set ablaze once and for all! -RX



Er - um - sorry - I don't quite follow. How would life on Mars contradict
the Bible?

If you are truly as stupid as you sound then nothing I say will help
change that. Nevertheless...

Five hundred years ago, Giordano Bruno, an Italian scientist, published
a book stating that the world was round, and not flat. He said the
heavens were filled with stars and planets peopled with life. The Church
burned him at the stake, using his own books to stoke the fires, just
because what he said contradicted their religious domga.

It took more than five hundred years to pass, but finally the Church
appologized for murdering Giordano Bruno. I, however, do not accept
their appology, because there were millions of other innocent folks who
also suffered similar fates, killed by crazed religious fanatics, for
which the neither the Church, nor any other religion, ever appologized.

Folks should understand, the religions are the greatest mass murderers
in the history of mankind, and they are still plying their handiword
today, even now as we speak...

Down with all God cursed murderous Religions... Long live the Sciences!


Moving on to religious trolling, Rudolph?

There's never a shortage of people who feel no constraint at all
against posting a piece of complete nonsense, yet doing so with all
the confidence and self assurance as if stating absolute fact.
