ethel said: "that is certainly true in terms of private opinions.
but, e.g., i happen to think that jehovah's witnesses (as well as id proponents) are crackpots and have provided some examples of quotes (up the thread) from their literature to demonstrate that their medical beliefs are not just religious - they claim scientific credibility too " .
