True science. Step outside of mainstream thought and get bashed by every half-wit who is considered a scientific leader in the world. The universities perpetuate whatever the current mythology is, and they use hate and venom to maintain the status quo. Science does not breed free thinkers. They preach it but they don't practice it.

One of the authors of the SciAm hit piece mentioned he was a collaborator of Paul Ehrlich - one of the true charlatans of our time.

It's interesting how the roles have changed but groupthink remains the same forever. Galileo was persecuted by the religious groupthink of the Inquisition for practicing science. Now the Environmental Inquisition, a Gaia religion posing as science, is again persecuting an independent thinker for practicing science. What the hell IS it with human beings?

Interesting quote. Can I quote you on that?

Those types sought to be elevated to politically-correct-authority status as a short cut "fame". Objective scientists stand behind their work and only consider challenges to their work from other objective scientists. They have limited time and will not waste it responding to politically correct "scientists". They do welcome accredited, objective scientists that identify possible errors.

The universities perpetuate whatever the current mythology is, and they use hate and venom to maintain the status quo. Science does not breed free thinkers. They preach it but they don't practice it.

I know what you mean. I will add that objective science does motivate free thinking.
