I dont have to prove a negative, the purden of proof is on you to prove atheists infiltrated the church and that was the cause of the Church's support for scientific research.

You, being a believer, should be the prime supporter of "arguments brought forward without proof"

Ahh concerning the question of God's existance I assume. Well to bad I dont engage in those kinds of debates....knowing how fruitless they are. Being a former atheist I know this from first-hand experience.

We heard of infiltrators everywhere, so why exactly would the church be exempt ? Due to God?
