No, I didn't mean to imply anything like that! I was using English is a 
colloquial, somewhat sloppy manner. By "you" I did not mean you, vous or tu, 
nor even any other actual person; it was addressed to an unseen, 
rhetorical "you" - whoever might wish to obstruct or restrict our right to 
free thought, free speech, as well as freedom of religion or philosophy, or 
even freedom from it. 

I am actually pretty much in agreement with you yourself about science and 
what it is.
