Yes!

Dobbs (tap) may not have realized that in posing the question he was 'mixing apples and oranges:' Religion is an emotional idea whereas Science is an intellectual idea. Correct me if I am wrong. Dobbs' question actually pointed to a more fundamental question: 'As an intelligent person do you tend to compartmentalize between logic and emotion?' That is the question, and the answer given by a sophisticated sample of folks who watch tv was that, 'Yes, in general we tend to compartmentalize.'
I call this tendency even in modern highly educated people, 'schizophenic.' You live lives of 'schizophrenic abandon' in most cases. You are unwilling to 'become whole' because of your irrational fear of god which was taught to you as a defenseless child.
The answer to Dobbs' question as to the mutual exclusivity of Science and Religion is, 'Yes!' Did you get it right?
