Ok, let's rewind...This was the context in which I was responding that the few "brilliant minds" referred to are falling back to "goddidit"...
Quote:Quote:
"according to a 2003 Cornell survey of leading scientists in the field of evolution, 87% deny existence of god, 88% disbelieve in life after death, and 90% reject idea that evolution directed toward “ultimate purpose.”
What is fascinating is that these are supposed to be the people who are in "the know", the most brilliant scientific minds on the planet. Why do you think those numbers are not 100% for all?
Is it more clear now? What I said about "goddidit" fall-back was pertaining to the 13%, 12%, and 10% of whom that poster and I were both referring.
It's easy to get lost and misunderstand. I hope my clarification helped to assure you I was not trying to misrepresent Tyson.
Can we move on now?
Cthulu- You seemed to take it from my response that I will not be attempting to connect the dots for you. When I said I don't have time, it's because I currently don't have the time to commit to thoroughly giving this the thought and exploration it deserves. I anticipate I will sometime tonight or tomorrow. I hope that is acceptable.
