I know of no one except a computer AI that can claim no bias, but that's usually been programmed with some bias. Slander, libel and calumny are specifically taught against in Christianity, unfortunately, peeople more ofthen than not, only use and see what they want to and what furthers their own intentions.
So that justifies them using it against a scientific process? Really?
no of course not. Bias is a part of the scientific process. I seek to overcome it at every opportunity, as do you. I wasn't justifying, but explaining. It does make me upset when blatant emotionalism is used to defend or retort evidence or logical arguements. It is unfortunate that it happens so often on both sides.
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
