Science was once a child of the church.

[Brian37]

Very well said, I agree; religion wants to get the hold back that it once had on science.

That genie will never be rebottled. Let's also be clear about something, the only hold religion had on science was via intimidation and oppression. Religion was never a contributor, partner, or champion of scientific endeavor.

At best what religion does is the Johny come lately crap, only accepts it after being drug kicking and screaming like a bratty kid when told Santa are their parents. But instead of giving up on bad claims, the try to use it to prop up their own superstitions.

Christian Science membership has been declining for decades. Quit making shit up.

Declining membership has nothing to do with members gained. Two different things.

All religions have declines and gains;

even the number of atheist is declining;

I don't make stuff up, you just misunderstand my stuff.

You quote an apology rag and call that fact? You must really think we are stupid.
