    Name-calling is what happens when you desperately want to argue, but you are in fact inarticulate.

        @neiltyson Maybe instead of name calling religion, science should try to understand what it is doing right politically and financially.

        @kiddle @neiltyson Science shouldn't be inanimate, it should be a living legacy of curiosity about nature and commitment to understanding.

        @S33light @neiltyson I'm pointing out that the complaint is properly directed at people not science.

        @kiddle @neiltyson I may have unrealistic expectations for science/scientists though. Now that I think about it.
