When I was younger, I beheld the Science establishment in awe. So much that I wavered in my faith. But I did something that is looked down upon, I actually started looking at the data.
A lot of what is proclaimed to the press is fabrication. Most of the studies that make the headlines are slanted either by the reporter, or the researcher, to read the way they want.
To be fair though, this is a flaw with the Media, not with Science - also a distinction must be drawn between ‘science’ and ‘the science establishment’. Continued work towards an ethical stem-cell alternative is good work.
