You point out where I said that, and you may have an argument.

You made a ridiculous blanket statement when you said "I for one am not going to trade my own limited human reasoning in for faith in any man(scientist or not); Nor will I surrender it to mere majority opinion."

You NOT qualify your statement. You broke it out to stand on its own, and I question how you could believe that.
