I'm neither curt nor insensitive in class. The scientific method is
discussed continuously, even when we aren't talking about science. If
someone brings up a non-scientific belief, the belief itself is never
challenged- only the reasons that it is "non-scientific".


It pains me to say this -- truly -- but you have beaten your old record
for pedantry, rudeness, smugness, condescension, and wrongness -- and
quite a record it was!

Then you have misread my post. Probably something to do with reading it
on a Mac g.
