Are things so bad that they no longer teach the scientific method? The difference between an idea, a hypothesis, a theory, and law? And that even some scientific laws apply in a very narrow scope, e.g., Newtonian physics.
We don’t need the scientific method anymore, doncha see, because everything is so “settled.”
>>And that even some scientific laws apply in a very narrow scope, e.g., Newtonian physics.<<
Be careful using such terms as “scientific theory.” LOTS of people here think it is a “guess all grown up” (as opposed to a structured construct which explains a large body of data). And we have scientific methods to “probe” a Scientific Theory.
And AGW is, indeed, a guess, since it meets exactly zero criteria of a Scientific Theory (unless you count funding for starting at a conclusion and going backwards from there).
But I didn’t say that.
Because I wasn’t here.
Really.
