Well since we can't trust the veracity of established scientists in maintaining the integrity of reason and logic amongst their own members...we can't even trust them to define what a scientist truly is now can we?
Scientists constantly circle each other like sharks, waiting for a sign of weakness. A piece of bad logic would bring them all in for the kill. A piece of bad math would bring in mathematicians as well, and they are even more predatory. They are not working together even if they appear to be working in the same direction.
This is funny. We, for the most part, don't have the ability to pass judgement on scientists. It takes math; if you don't have math you can't even speak science.
