You said liberals say science and religion are "separate but equal" then you explain that science is "religion independent" wouldn't that be the same as "separate"? Then where does the "equal" part come into play?

I am not the one making that argument. I am pointing out that that is not a good argument. Far too many liberal atheists and theists do make that argument. I didn't say ALL, just far too many.

Do yourself a favor, read Stenger's "The New Atheism" if you have not.

It is the "Splitting the baby" argument far too many make.

What does "science and religion are separate but equal" even mean and what does liberalism have to do with it?
