Dumb and dumber all right, but leaving aside the bigots, theology is a difficult topic and one would reasonably assume that those who simply oppose it do not fully understand its scientific, factual, historical and philosophical relevance, for 'believers' and others. Roughly speaking, you can't just ignore stuff like St. Anselm's work and shuck off the whole lot, simply by becoming a rationalist. The world is not THAT easy. Was it not General Groves who once said in another context "The atomic bomb was all right until they let these scientists in on it".
