That statement bothers me. If that belief affects us all, if that belief means that (for a real-life current example) our taxpayer money goes toward UFO studies instead of fighting wildfires, then that "entitlement" of one group of believers...

Correction: "looking for corroborative evidence" is NOT good science, unless they also acknowledge the misses as well as the hits. Did that ever happen? And I had no idea what you later added in your profile. We know that mundane explanations... -
