One thing is clear:
The level of global warming duplicity at the highest levels will encourage skepticism of “the science world” at every level, and the longer the scientific community takes to respond to the AGW fraud, the lower their status will sink in the eyes of the public.
Which means, in relative terms, the position of the YECcers, OE creationists and IDers will rise.
Agreed. But let’s not forget tha the neo-Darwinian synthesis is also in deep trouble, as the increasing number of evos who are abandoning the HMS Beagle will attest.
