We’re not out to cut funding to your black hole detection chamber or revoke the degrees of chiropractors just because a couple of us don’t believe in it, okay? Chill out, participate with the prompt and continue with having a nice day. I’m sure almost everybody has something to add.

    This is a really stupid take, how do you think new scientists are made if not reaching for enlightenment to answer their own questions?

    Science is about being wrong and learning.

      Yes, and people that challenge the science who then become scientists actually research/experiment thenselves. They don’t go and claim science is false until they have actual reason/evidence to believe so. One can question science all they want when they do their own science on the matter and it isn’t handily disproved beyond reasonable doubt by existing evidence.

      Most science deniers do not do that. Making anti-science claims without obtaining solid, consistent evidence is not science.
