Dan,

I have to call you on this one.

You promote a scientific approach to understanding the universe, but you then quite happily come to the conclusion that 95% of clergy knowingly tell white lies, based upon a sample group of 'more than a few'.

You can't just abandon science when you feel like it. At best you can say that 'more than a few clergy knowingly tell white lies'. Anything else is conjecture without a solid base.

I know you're not stating it as fact, but simply that you have become personally convinced (so credit due there), but it says something about your thinking if you can become convinced with so little evidence.

Blacknad.
