Why should any converted Christian, whether Catholic or Protestant,
accept atheist scientists conclusions about reality ?

Because they have evidence to support their conclusions. A large number
of scientists are not atheist, and come to the same conclusions following
the evidence.



What is their qualifications to determine issues of Divinity ?

Why would they need any? Science doesn't deal with issues of divinity.


We both know atheist conclusions about reality are predetermined and
entirely predictable.

Yet those "atheistic conclusions" are the same as those scientists who are
not atheist. Conclusions in science are based on the evidence, not on
predetermined ideas. You seem to be confusing science with creationism.
