For some bizarre reason my dad thinks scientists and in particular, climatologists, have an agenda. He says that the government or whatever pays them to say something, like for example, humans are the cause of the current global warming. Like I've said so many other times in this blog, for someone who claims he knows how the scientific method works, it is painfully obvious that he doesn't. Or maybe he thinks they are just guidelines, who the hell knows. He also says that lots of scientists disagree with the human-caused global warming thing and I keep telling him, if they presented sufficient evidence that it is natural, it would be a breakthrough and distribution of Nobel Prizes would be in order. So far however, that hasn't been the case. Science is about finding things out, it is a process. A scientist may not like what he discovers but that doesn't matter; what does is the evidence.Labels: Denialism, Global Warming, Rants, science
