I did a study myself. I tried coke and rum and got drunk. I tried coke and bourbon and got drunk. I tried coke and vodka and got drunk. Conclusion: There's something in coke that causes intoxication.

And that's how studies are done.

Someone please tell the climate change proselytizers about all those “climate studies” which are breathlessly reported and clung to by the Algore faithful.

To all the points made in this article add:

(i) intense pressure to support the “consensus”; and

(ii) unlimited future funding if you “get” the right result

... and you have “climate science”

How do they know if a study is true or false?
By comparing it to *other* studies, that may be true or false?

Unfortunately life or living is also associated with cancer. Not sure self denial is amswer. Moderation and self discipline, maybe. It seems to me health nuts just as apt,to get it as others, though smokers more. As infants are sometimes born with cancer or have shortly after birth, I wonder if it’s more what your ancestors ate and were exposed to, maybe as children or as unborn, that after passed on in the genes. I was talking with a woman a few years ago and she told me all of her siblings, she had several, and herself had had cancer at one time or another. She said it seemed to run in her family, including her parents aunts, uncles and cousins.

I know they are fake, and get very angry at the mediabots who take them seriously. My favorite, and the one that set me off for ever, is the one about nightlights and myopia. “study” showed a correlation between kids with nightlights in their bedrooms, and near sightedness.
Mediabots suggested we outlaw nightlights to prevent myopia! Completely 100% wrong! The kids don’t f****** see well! They need some light at night!!!!!

but the gov’t grant money keeps coming. C.S. Lewis had it right 80 years ago. it’s called “scientism,” and its there to roil and panic common folks while promoting the political agendas of the perpetrators.

Since science research began being funded by tax payer monies in the form of grants, universities have been churning out “scientists” at factory piece work rates to take advantage.

Only 25% are replicated.

Peer Review is largely the Royal Priesthood protecting its turf from outside forces and perceived heretics.

Think the SES, a.k.a. Swamp. Power corrupts; it is human nature.

The scientific method is a tool, and a good one, but it is nevertheless limited, and not sentient; it requires objectivity but does not guarantee it.
