   Is your definition of 'atheist scientist' any scientist who determines   
   anything contrary to what is in your bible?  Do facts enter into the   
   situation at all?  Can you conceive of the meaning of words like   
   'neutral' or 'irrelevant'?  As in the scientist is neutral and   
   preconceived positions are irrelevant?
