From the article

Quote:But as he continues his studies, there will undoubtedly be a time when he faces some serious conflicts between the realities of the universe and the fiction of his faith. I wonder how strong that passion for science will be when his driving goal disappears.

Aye it would be mighty interesting to see what this loon is at ten years hence.
It's amazing 'science' always seems to 'find' whatever it is funded for, and never the oppsite. Drich.

He's 11 now. $100 says he'll be an atheist by the time he's done with astrophysics.

Quote:So you need to be really cautious about surveys that ask religious people if they’ve been behaving in the way they are supposed to. If they feel social pressure to fudge the truth a little, they will – they’re only human, after all.

I thought graduating from college was supposed to make you godless. Also 11 years old? Who lets an 11 year old go to college?

The crisis is not going to be when he realises religion is bullshit, but when he realises that gulling his parishoners* is more profitable & less work than sticking to his integrity.

The father's an orthodox priest, that's a hereditary position.
