I would like to comment on inaccurate statements made in the article provided 
below, as they pertain to something being scientific or unscientific. I have no 
interest in discussing the author's religious beliefs. He like everybody else 
is entitled to practice his own religion. But to misrepresent science in order 
to promote one's own parochial religious beliefs is wrong. In the present case 
the author named Mani Bhaumik is trying to promote his Hindu beliefs while 
refuting the beliefs of Christianity, and calling it being scientific. Please 
see the following statement:

QUOTE
An impartial appraisal of the warp and weft of physical reality reveals that 
woven throughout the universe is an abstract intelligence that is akin to a 
Creator and Sustainer, in the sense meant by Brahmn in Indic thought. This is 
not an anthropomorphic God who rages and rules and demands obeisance. The 
perception of the elegant order of the universe and its existence as a single 
significant whole, which Einstein called the "cosmic religious feeling", is 
devoid of a god conceived in man's image.
UNQUOTE
.....Mani Bhaumik

The truth is the above claim is unscientific and bogus from an objective 
factual standpoint. Science has nothing to do with the supernatural. It has 
nothing to say about the question of God, one way or the other. It does not 
support or refute anybody's religious beliefs.

Cheers,

Santosh
