Of course. Perhaps I didn't explain my self well.

That is just the point. The definition of a scientist I am using is " A person 
using scientific methods". You can easily be a Preacher AND a scientist. 
It is fairly easy to fit this definition but Ron is risking falling outside 
it. As I said he is probably a nice guy but he is risking his reputation by 
not thinking about what he says. THe problem is that he jumps to so many 
conclusions I doubt everything he says now,
