Can you please explain what it mean to "prevent it"?
Because your religion prevents it
So, that when you are college educated, and some institution has declared you graduated and a learned member of society, if you turn around and say: "I choose not to believe this emergent scientific consensus, no! you don't have that option! It's not how objectively, established scientific truths are determined. It is true whether or not you believe in it. And in retrospect you think, maybe that's what you should base legislation on, not something you want to be true, or feel should be true, or it's something that you don't allow to be true because your religion prevents it, or because your political philosophy prevents it. You don't have that option! If it's an objectively, established truth. And like I said earlier, that is the entire point of the scientific enterprise.

If one believes certain scientific theories that are in conflict with religious teaching, they will be declared to be an apostate or blasphemer by the religious leaders. There are punishments for this.
