Unless, of course, said scientist has evidence, but simply can't publish it
in a journal.
Additionally, there are different levels of "proof." I think that there
is an awful lot of evidence to make Christianity a very reasonable
proposition. I can see why others disagree - but it does nto strike me as
unusual that different scientistis disagree on different propositions.
