True science has done a lot for this country - it’s the phony stuff that drives me crazy. Kind of like Al Gore’s “consensus” for global warming. True science does not require “consensus.” It stands on its own. For example, the scientific fact that water consists of two H atoms and one O atom orientated as a 109-degree polar bond requires no consensus. It is a fact, unanimously accepted. THAT is true science.
We’re not talking about global warming, we’re talking about the theory of evolution.
If you want to ignore overwhelming scientific evidence spanning several disciplines that’s your business. But to have a chief executive with enormous influence over our research priorities be wilfully ignorant of basic science is scary as hell to me.
