OK Arlo, So what you are saying is that a system based on science is has higher morality than a religion based on moral principles.
Either you are delusional and should get help, or you are using the word moral in an entirely new way. How about if you use the word "Chipmunk", that way it will not be confusing.

[Mark] I'm not quite sure how morals fit in here. Please explain. [Arlo] Intellectual patterns (e.g. science) are morally superior to social patterns (e.g. theism).
