Is There a Difference Between Trusting Scientists and Trusting Preachers?

RE: Is There a Difference Between Trusting Scientists and Trusting Preachers?
Unless you went out there and checked it yourself, you pretty much are taking a scientist's word for it. But the fact is, with the proper tools and education, you can go out there and check this stuff if you want to. Also if you find something that is different from what scientists believe, you can put it up for peer review and possibly become rich and famous. Do that with a religious text, and you're an apostate or heretic and generally shunned.
