If you believe that the earth is round, you may be surprised to know that scientists used to believe it was flat. I am amused by 'round earth claimers' who use science like a weapon against flat earthers, clearly not knowing that science was once the bedfellow of this belief as well.
Science now has other bedfellows, and it has a " Fan base", which I think Atheism is part of, latching themselves to it as if they are partners. They root for science and treat it like religions treat their gods. A different type of worship.
But science was once the child of the church, its main mission used to be " A search for the divine."
Again I ask, so what?
