There are a couple of different ways that scientist get twisted, and not all of them are intentional. Either:-A) Their entire life they have been told something is true, regardless of evidence, and so they believe it whole-heartedly, regardless of evidence. This in turn shapes their perspective on what they see and choose not to see. -B) The are afraid of being ex-communicated from the academic world, loosing their careers that they have worked hard for. -C) They have invested so much of their life and research into an idea that they are loathe to let it go. -D) They have some sort of personal antagonistic bias against religion (i.e. Dawkins)-A & C to me are the least offensive of the four, and the two that I would consider not necessarily the fault of the individual, per se.
