It doesn’t follow that the actions of a few reflect on all scientists.

I'd want some verification that these protestors could even be legitimately called "scientists" before I'd even go that far.

Certainly not. But it does reflect on the radical Evos (such as Dawkins et al) who advocate using force to squelch honest debate.

Let’s call them the SA wing of the scientific party, would that be it?

Welcome to FR.

Funny, creationists have never acted like that to the best of my knowledge and yet we’re compared to dominionists by some of your compatriots.

With no precedent we’re accused of wanting to burn scientists at the stake.

It goes both ways and we’ve never done anything like that.

All we are is being ACCUSED of it and those made up scenarios are supposed to reflect on all creationists.

No, but it does say loads about the intolerant & insecure ones.

...beeeeecause, on the whole, the scientific establishment has welcome alternative models with open arms and minds?
