Attack of the Theocrats!
@ Stevehill
Really?!? The law is adversarial and respect for evidence is easily trumped by the desire to win cases. The standards for evidence in law do not even intimate standards in science. Pre-law is a scholastic joke and I do not see it getting any better from there. There is no real comparison between law and science. The former is what we do to make the best of a bad situation, human foibles, the latter is the best humans can do.
You may resent this also.
