[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve often wondered about the reason for this. I think part of the problem is a confusion about discerning between expertise and expressions of arrogance. So a scientist discussing climate change or Covid is not the same as a politician and MAGA doesn’t make the distinction. And let’s face it, there are a lot of arrogant jerks in government who come off as holier than thou. Also, an inability to understand that what we understand in science is ever-evolving and therefore “changes” as people learn more. [/quote] That's what makes it bizarre when the right wing tries to pretend science is somehow a religion. In science you get to learn new things, it's based on observation, testing and measuring, and it's continually evolving. But religion is based entirely on dogma and you cannot observe, test, measure or even question any of it.[/quote]
