"All Scientists Should Be Militant Atheists"

[Whateverist]

I'm with Crossless on this one.  There are scads of religious scientists who do exemplary work in spite of their religious delusions.  The ability to separate what you would like to be true from what is true is the hallmark of how science and scientists operate.  People who are unable to make that division would do well to stick to preaching - they'll never contribute anything meaningful to human knowledge.

As am I.  I would just caution that not every theist holds fundamentalist beliefs about a personal God or a literal heaven & hell.  I would think anyone rational enough to do top tier science must have a theology which manages the cognitive dissonance better than the lower forms of believers.
