Typical theists versus typical atheists

[LostLocke]

Depends.
What is the new idea? What hypothesis did they put forth? What observations were made? What data was collected? What experiments were run? What results did they get? Did they then repeat all this over and over? Did they build a working model from the data? Did they make further predictions? Is there concordance? Is there convergence?
Those are the things I will take into consideration when I choose whether or not to "believe" a scientist.

Do you mean that all people you had the chance to meet have enough time to check personally every story, said scientific, they didn't mind to accept and believe?

I'm only telling you what I do.
What other people do or don't do is out of my control.
