" Employing science in a debate about God's existence most commonly betrays?"
That's vague, employing science to prove or disprove or as part of some point on the side?
"A profound ignorance for scientific discipline"
Must one be categorized as profoundly ignorant, there is no other category?
" An ulterior motive"
Such as?

Rep Power: 39 | | | OTOH, although I often take our board resident Darwin thumping athetsts to task for bothering to whine about believers, I ALSO recognize that the bible thumpers, if left to their own devices, would turn our nation into a repressive theocracy, too. Keep your religion (or your lack of it) out of my lifestyle, please
Thank you in advance for shutting the fuck up.
Yours, completely indifferent to your believe systems,

But that post wasn't a rep grubbing attempt, and that's worked out pretty well since it hasn't been repped.  |

Which do you think is most common? | What is most common is people trying to refute religion using scitentific theories of origin that have as much real evidence to support them as Creationism does.
