The Religion of Science

This piece of news had me hooked.

Makes one wonder how different Science and Religion are, or if Science is turning into yet another religion, not in terms of faith, but blind faith.

This statement in particular was very revealing: "I brought my baby to touch the wall, so that the power of Darwin can purify her genetic makeup of undesirable inherited traits," said Darlene Freiberg, one among a growing crowd assembled here to see the mysterious stain.

I wonder. I thought Science was the answer to the 'miracles' that took place in the mystical world.

Here, I would like to say

" Oh My Darwin!!! Is that really happening??"

But seriously what can we conclude from this? Can we say that some people have to have blind faith be it in science or in religion. They just cannot take up the task of thinking things through?? I think we can say that.
