A Stem-Cell Heretic Makes His Case - WSJ.com:
“Embryonic stem-cell researchers are prone to touting the potential of their work to treat all sorts of ailments, from diabetes to Parkinson’s disease. Don’t bet on it, says James Sherley, a stem-cell specialist himself, who has become a notable heretic in the field.”
How interesting that we see the language of faith applied to science.
Modern secularists are more fervent in their “faith” than most, though they don’t see it as such.
Science is a method by which information can be gathered and hypotheses tested. It makes no claims that it can do all things or explain all things.
It is the science “faithful” who make the extraordinary claims. They claim that with science, all things will be explained and all ills cured. Those who question the faith, even just a small part of it, are now called heretics.
Hmmm.
