There is certainly room for overlap. ANd, as I said bfore, I do not subscribe to the second theory.

So the theory you describe but don't subscribe to says through critical reasoning they discover there is no religious truth. OK, but that doesn't explain why scientists don't go apostate in as large numbers. I'm just postulating that critical reasoning unaided by the scientific method will take you to BS land.
