    are you not aware of the influence which mainstream science has on the law? everyone is just supposed to trust those in power because they went to a fancy school. as i said, im not religious, and i believe in most of modern science.

      mainstream science

      is a made up term. There is science that went through peer reviews and got checked over and over and over again and then there is made up nonsense. There is no such thing as “mainstream science” or “non mainstream science” and there is no such thing as trust in science. Every day science gets debunked and redone and done better, nothing is safe not even Einstein’s theories. Scientists who got a Nobel Price get proofen wrong. Scientists from the most “fancy schools” get ripped apart for wrongdoing too.
