And about time. The fact that Dawkins would like to suppress any exploration of intelligent design in the classroom is a particularly repulsive example of totalitarian scientism.

"This whole post and corresponding comments reeks of bigotry, hate, and ignorance. I am disgusted to have come across it."
"something we definitely do not need paraded around the blogosphere."
"you, as an evangelical, need to repent"
"You really should do something about this holier-than-thou iconoclasm. It’s not healthy."
"Is this in any way edifying?"
"You are extremely ignorant, i pray Allah guides you"
"Do you really think blogging your explicit hatred and mean spirited-ness marks you as one of the faith-filled Christians that you claim to be?"
The smug athiest just got a cold dose of logic -and he sure didn’t like it.

Of course scientism, and the scientistic establishment, in fascist. It’s all about power and control. The “science” these people represent is about securing dogma, and preventing its questioning (real science, of course, is about questioning consensuses, thinking something new and different – this is what produces progress in the (real) search for knowledge). This scientistic attitude is one reason why (it has been suggested) the growth of human knowledge, in the future, will take place somewhere other than in the West.
