Which pretty well sums up the attitudes and actions of most geologists and pretty well all geophysicists when they rejected Wegener's theory of Continental Drift. Blind obstinacy is not limited to creationists, nor outwith the behaviour of scientists.

 

But there is always the difference between the theory of science and science as it's practised.

I wasn't trying to imply that you were, sorry if it came off that way.
