We're just pointing out that you do the same things we do and so, by logic of Tu Quoque, justify our own faith.
You see, you believe in the conclusions of science. These are beliefs that result from observations followed by hypothesis to explain and predict these observations followed by the gathering of data and testing of the hypothesis followed by rigorous peer review designed to ferret out faulty reasoning and fraudulent claims in a self-correcting process that seeks to follow facts to whatever conclusions they may lead to.
We, on the other hand, believe in the sacred proclamations of ancient goat herders who claimed to speak for God and then we look for cherry picked data that could be interpreted to confirm their assertions and, when we can't find any, seek to re-interpret the passages as some kind of obtuse metaphor that coincides with modern science and then congratulate said ancient goat herders for knowing all along what science has only recently discovered.
You see. Same thing.
Glory!
