***How can you prove it is the truth? Or more towards the common demoninator, where is the evidence that you are telling the truth?

I live in that part of the USA subjected to the Spotted Owl Scam, also known as the Northwest Forest Plan. Jack Ward Thomas’s report, A Conservation Strategy for the Northern Spotted Owl (1990), excluded all observed data and field studies contrary to his foremost goal - excluding timber harvesting in Northwest Forests.

Spotted owls were thriving in second growth timber. That owl species did not require just old growth timber habitat.

The Thomas report was junk science.

This is why, Kevmo, a huge swath of the citizenry no longer think well of scientists. Too many have a personal agenda and are politically driven to screw everyone else.

***Scientism is well on its way to becoming a religion, with high priests and rites of passage, toeing the party line and “pay no attention to the man behind the curtain”.

I think it might even be the one-world religion prophesied in the Bible: Mystery, Babylon. The root word of Mystery is Knowledge; the root word of Babylon is Knowledge — the tower of Babyl was the tower of Knowledge. The root word of science is Knowledge; the root word of technology is Knowledge.
