With due deference to the author of the old adage, "People who live in religious cafeterias should perhaps keep their fake stones in their pockets", if you know what I mean. Since most religions, even the "religion" assumed by our intrepid scientists (which they will stoutly deny), are based on large doses of faith (hypotheses that can never be proven is the scientific equivalent), is a discussion of comparative religious superiority ever anything more than an excercise in futility?
