Yet while I agree with you about the science, and disagree with Felix (and probably others) about religion, I still hold that they are free to believe whatever they want. I only ask that we can coexist in peace. I will leave you in your ignorance, if you agree likewise to leave me in mine.
I totaly agree with you about that.
Furthermore, even whether or not I agree with them, I still recognize their contributions to the list; and Felix has made many useful suggestions.
I hope my English never made me imply he didn't. And I do hope we can disagree about things without animosity.

No, I didn't mean to imply anything like that! I was using English is a colloquial, somewhat sloppy manner. By "you" I did not mean you, vous or tu, nor even any other actual person; it was addressed to an unseen, rhetorical "you" - whoever might wish to obstruct or restrict our right to free thought, free speech, as well as freedom of religion or philosophy, or even freedom from it.
I am actually pretty much in agreement with you yourself about science and what it is.
