>Religion involves *mystical* belief.

Exactly why all of science, not just the quacks, is a religion. All the
posits of science, like any religion, rests on recursive faith in
itself. Logic is the right way to evaluate the world because that's
science. Science is the right way to evaluate the world because that
relies on logic. It's full of just as many conceptual loops as any other
religion. We make fun of religious groups for their tendency to back up
why their religion is right by looking to their religion but that is
exactly what science does. It's all mystical. It's all faith. I happen
to think my religion, science, is better than others but that again is
based merely on faith in my own religion.
