That’s worthless science. U of Cincy just lost their funding.

Kind of like reporting that global temperatures have not risen dramatically in the last 100 years.

Worthless. As in, no government will keep funding that.

“Science is bunk.”

Well, now that depends. First of all, what is “science”? For sure, not a religion, though some treat the discipline as such. There is not, and never can be, any such thing as “settled science”, especially when, as in most instances, not even all the parameters are known, and the first working hypotheses are based largely on guessswork, many of which have proven to be so far off the mark as to be fairy tales or worse. Then, pursuit of “logic” can lead to some pretty convoluted mathematics, some of which cannot ever by made to conform to the real world. Consider “geocentric” models of the makeup of the Universe, the mathematics for computing orbits and projecting celestial events gets much too complicated to ever be solved.

Science often proves to be one b!+c# kitty. Especially when using the same theorems over and over, expecting a different result the next time.

Hey, hey, hey, now. It’s only “science” if it agrees with their “feeling” of how thing should be.
