"Dr. Ioannidis said he was struck by an “arrogant dismissal” by some physical scientists of the suggestion that their field might be anything less than pristine. We won’t really know, he said, unless there are empirical studies like the recent ones in medical science."Truly intellectually honest people who actually value objective, unbiased information would not react that way. They would be interested in the source of the information, the methodology used to obtain it, and the results of honest, disciplined replications.

Nothing illustrates the lack of scrupulous scientific integrity as much as the current meme on "scientific consensus" associated with the global warming hysteria.
What I can't wrap my head around is, on atheism, WHY should we care what happens vis-a-vis global warming (or anything else, for that matter)?!? Let us eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we die - finally, permanently erased, GONE - and thus we have NO REASON to be concerned beyond grabbing all the gusto we can grab in the short time available to us.
Global Warming is a money spigot for the Dems. First, the Greens donate to the Left. Second, the Left pushes for redistribution on a global basis.
It's all money and power. Well, that and classism/messiahism. It all comes together with AGW.
