> My point is that I am not making an ad hominem comment. I've investigated and clearly know who he is. He is simply not a super-star theorist, but a devout atheist, trying to make points with the lay, unsuspecting public. Note that this article is four years after the Guth well-accepted presentation. I think Stenger chose to ignore well-established mainstream thinking to drive his neo-atheist agenda.-I'm not trying to 'string him up'. I'm sure he is a fine person. But as climategate shows, scientists with a fierce agenda should lose all reasonable credibility. Please look at this discussion from Henninger of the WSJ. At this point, despite the printed-media blackout, I'm sure you all have heard of "Climategate". (With thanks to Nixon for a terrible addition to the language.)-http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704107104574572091993737848.html
