--- Quote from: Disco Matt on December 02, 2009, 16:12:32 ---My main arguments are with the evidence that has come to light with the leaked emails. There's plenty to suggest data being manipulated and attempts to ignore freedom of information requests.
The attempts to squash any opposing viewpoints are not remotely scientific. If the evidence is so perfect and convincing then why are they labelling those who disagree "deniers" (implication being that they're as academically and socially unacceptable as holocaust deniers)? Generally science progresses by adapting theories as more evidence comes to light rather than trying to stamp on opposing evidence. If there is an overwhelming pile of evidence in favour of man-made global warming then why do they feel the need to smear and belittle those who disagree? Let the facts do the talking.
The efforts visible in some of these emails would be a better fit for a fundamentalist religious group rather than a supposedly scientific body!
I would also point out that certain elements of the media are equally guilty of ignoring data that doesn't fit their editorial line. The Independent, for example, printed a gleeful piece about the demise of the Scottish ski trade shortly before two or three excellent years for the industry (which oddly enough they didn't comment on!)

Just to give you 2 names: Galileo and Miguel Servet (or Michael Servet for you'll heathens :D)
The scientific community is affected by inmovilism in the same manner as the rest of society is. You really have to hit the stablishment with a big sledgehammer to even get them to admit that there's the remotest, tiniest possibility they are wrong. And if they are getting paid for being wrong, then you better get yourself one of those big jackhammers mounted on a 360, and a lot of patience.
