First, I think many of the responses to Michael's input have been uncharitable and assume too much. It's as if the mention of being Christian is similar to there being blood in the water for a shark. Michael doesn't strike me as a Drich or Godschild, he comes across more like Wooters or Alpha Male (my initial assesment is that Michael's even more reasonable). Not that there aren't things we won't disagee about, but he's not batshit crazy.
Second, Michael is correct in limiting the role of science. Science can help me build a nuclear weapon. Science will inform me of the consequences of deployment. Science informs decisions, but can't decide if I should build one or when and if I should use one.
