That seems to be the idea of Ben Stein, economist and creationist crackpot.
Last time I checked, men were killing each other for a very long time before the concept of science existed. The French bishop who said "kill them all, God will know his own" wasn't a scientist. The kings and cardinals who sent waves of Crusaders to invade the Middle East weren't scientists. The Conquistadors weren't scientists. Genghis Khan and Attila the Hun weren't scientists.
Adolph Hitler wasn't a scientist, Ben. Neither were Reinhart Heydrich or Adolph Eichmann (who was a high school dropout). Saddam Hussein was not a scientist. Osama bin Ladin is not a scientist.
For that matter, neither George Bush nor Dick Cheney or Donald Rumsfeld or Condoleezza Rice are scientists.
Ben Stein, here's your sign:
