Well, it's been a hell of a ride, laying rubber all over the road for the past decade. But it's time to call it a day and park the Rogue in the garage. Effective today, I am shutting down my blog to focus my attention on other endeavours. My thanks to the more than 2.7 million people who regularly joined me on these sojourns through news stories over the years that dealt with the places with issues of religion and faith intersecting with public affairs. May God bless you with a continuing desire to learn about and help disseminate the issues of faith throughout the public square. Happy trails in your continuing travels! Fr. Tim Moyle, p.p. Diocese of Pembroke

Of course atheism is inconsistent with the scientific method and it's why almost all top scientists are agnostic and not atheist. Richard Dawkins has admitted he's agnostic. On his scale of 1 to 7 with 1 being absolute belief and 7 being absolute disbelief he rates himself a 6.7 to 6.9 depending upon the day.
The reason is that science, and in general all forms of human inquiry, should not make assertions that are not supported by evidence. If one abandons that rule all forms of assertions can be equally valid. Also one can't prove a negative. One can't disprove God or Gods in the same way one can't disprove astrology or homeopathy, one has to give objective evidence to support them. Failing that, then one withholds assent.
