Francis Collins was the director of the Human Genome Project and a fundamentalist Christian.
What does the Human Genome project have to do with secularism? Isn't that just studying and mapping out genetics?
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
