If a cult shouts down science every time it contradicts their texts, maybe they shouldn't benefit from science. If they became like the Amish that would be far less harmful. And less hypocritical than benefiting from scientific method while dismissing it as being inferior to their texts or what their priest says or their 'intuitive understanding of the universe'
The fact that a believer is happier than a skeptic is no more to the point than that a drunken man is happier than a sober one. ~ George Bernard Shaw
