    I am in 100% agreement with that observation. Especially
    IQ measurement abuses, Genetic superiority theories,
    Survival of the Fittest doctrines, and Quantum Mechanics
    "theories of everything".

    Dawkins and Sagan are miniature tongue in cheek heretics
    for ever saying such a thing in the first place. This
    is exactly the kind of "big science abuse" that both I and
    the fundamentalists are outraged about. Me as a Physicist,
    and them as God fearing Fundamentalists.

    How can the Holocaust, the biggest black mark on
    human civilization be irrelevant?

    Hmmm, yet another physicist supporting the Fundamentalist
    religious movement against creeping corruption in science.
