Something to ponder..

In the vast majority of "popular science" articles and programs, little effort is made to present the evidence that supports the article or program. As a result, a lot of people have the mistaken idea that science doesn't require hard evidence in support of its hypotheses. It's a short step from there to assuming that science is just one more religious belief or opinion, when in fact nothing could be further from the truth. – Jim Taylor Debunk Creation mailing list October 07, 2002
