I will be interested to read some of your partially-baked ideas.

Ten minutes at twenty three degrees Celsius:

Joe Sixpack believes that science is a collection of facts. This
idea, the Multiple Choice Error, makes science comparable to
religion in his eyes. (Leigh Palmer believes that religion is a
collection of facts.)

the belief that a canonical inquiry will lead to enlightenment.
The religious believe that their canons *are* the enlightenment.
