Re: Tactics and Motivation of Global Warming Denial
[ QUOTE ]
Hmmm so when all the Nazi doctors were spouting studies about white supremacy im really glad nobody did any of these things, especially not number one.
1. Doubt the science
2. Question the motives and integrity of scientists
3. Magnify disagreements among scientists, and cite gadflies as authorities
4. Exagerate potential harm [of acceptance]
5. Appeal to personal freedom
6. Acceptance repudiates key philosophy
[/ QUOTE ]
Nonsense. Noone in the international scientific community took the Nazis seriously. Hence the strength of the skeptical nature of science.
What people don't understand is that there are very few scientists that wouldn't love to debunk evolution or global warming. It would make their careers. Science is built around skepticism.
