Francis Collins may be a great scientist, but he is not qualified to speak for the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Collins rejects any scientific understanding of the most fundamental questions of what it is to be human, questions concerning the foundations of human nature. Collins publicly and officially claims any scientific understanding of human nature is impossible. Such a claim is simply unacceptable for the head of the NIH.
