The sad / funny / bizarre thing is that this man is hawking religion 
to combat religion and doesn't even know it. He thinks he's hawking 
science but, alas, doesn't properly know what science is. Or, he does 
know, but is happy that non-Popper Science is OK as a foundation from 
which to teach children "real science". Very sad.
