The only thing we have going for us that Hollywood and politicians dont is objectivity, he told Science magazine.[1] Can the public trust the objectivity of scientists as a class? Do they get more credibility points than other groups of professionals?"As the son of a world-renowned scientist, I can personally attest that those who are certain their judgment is "objective" are fully susceptible to deluding themselves.
Their confidence in their own objectivity only serves to make them more arrogant and condescending in expressing their personal biases.

You'll get stuffed into the 'science hater' box if you keep that up. ;-)
