Honestly I absolutely love him. He provides such a plethora of evidence based knowledge that I believe to be invaluable. I was disappointed to learn he is religious (albeit he doesn't preach about it). It's evident he supports feminism (another reason I'm such an advocate of his), but as with all Abrahamic religions it is fiercely misogynistic, so it could come across as really quite hypocritical to his beliefs. Also with him being a doctor and his continued use of scientific based evidence (the acknowledgement science exists) flies in the face of being religious and thinking there's a mystical fellow in the sky. It really doesn't make sense, but as previously stated he doesn't preach about it, which is why I have remained such an advocate.
Our local vicar is also a scientist. Until a few years ago he worked part time in our local hospitals lab and part time as a vicar. He now does his vicaring full time. He is very insistent that science and religion can work alongside each other.
He's also very accepting of other religions and cultures. Him and his wife run a food and clothing bank from one of his 3 churches. They do a fabulous job and accept anyone who needs their help, regardless of religion.
As well as this, he has no issues with homosexuality. He's performed religious blessings for homosexual couples on several occasions.
I know this is slightly off on a tangent, I think I'm just trying to point out that some people have a very outdated view of religious people. I get that some are arseholes but you can say that for most groups of people. Many are very open minded and accepting...more so than some people on here it would seem.
