Science journals publishing only material that makes them comfortable would produce a closed circle of the faithful preaching to each other.

There's a difference between disagreeing with a research paper and finding "fatal flaws" in a research paper. Ichneumon spoke of a work as being "fatally flawed", not a mere disagreement.

Please try to be a little less blatant with your dishonesty.

"There's a difference between disagreeing with a research paper and finding "fatal flaws" in a research paper."

So the difference is between a little disagreement and a big disagreement, or what? I guess I don't understand how the editor or the peer reviewer could determine whether a piece of work was "fatally flawed" or a new concept.
