Do scientists really need a PhD?

I'm not trolling, I just think the semantics involved in this discussion are stupid.

Scientist: A person who is studying or has expert knowledge of one or more of the natural or physical sciences.

Seems rather open ended.

By your definition everyone is a scientist.

What has Mark Zuckerberg done that can be called science.

You should also cite your references - The Free Dictionary isn't particularly credible.
