OK. I give on this one partially. It is not a religion. But some seem to 
treat it as gospel when they reason that there are only two solutions 
rather than looking at  the hypothesis itself as flawed and in need of 
work. I seem to be one of the very few who actually view it as a working 
hypothesis.
