How can anyone trust any science theory?

Scientific theory is just that, theory. Facts in science can be trusted, because they represent an unbiased answer to a question. Science facts have given us a lot of good things like electricity, mobility, flight, medical advances, and communication.

The problem with science as presented today is that politics has hijacked the process, forcing outcomes for cash grants and/or the political agenda of the chief scientist.

Do not confuse real science, which is simply the process of discovery through thought and experimentation, with the climate hoax going on today.

“Scientific theory is just that, theory. Facts in science can be trusted, because they represent an unbiased answer to a question.”

That is incorrect. Science overstates its theories as some sort of fact (see Global Warming and Evolution as good examples) instead of an educated guess that could very well be wrong, and history has shown that science has been wrong more than it has been right. I do not know how you can say that “Facts in science can be trusted because they represent an unbiased answer” when you then go on to admit that science is being taken over by politics. Actually, your statements show that you know very little about science history. Science has always been corrupted by politics and has never been unbiased or given solid objective answers.

“The problem with science as presented today is that politics has hijacked the process, forcing outcomes for cash grants and/or the political agenda of the chief scientist.”

You are making my case here.

“Do not confuse real science, which is simply the process of discovery through thought and experimentation, with the climate hoax going on today.”

LOL. So global warming is not “real science” but just a “hoax” and yet the whole damn science community and the most important and influential publicans and universities and other science organizations are backing it and not stepping forward to call it a hoax. You don't have a clue.
