Re: “Scientific consensus has ALWAYS been a lazy way of 'argument by authprity'.Fair enough. I'll just point out that "consensus" has more than one definition and yours is #2 in the Merriam-Webster dictionary. Before we went off on the this tangent, I used the word in its primary sense. I now regret not using its synonym, "general agreement," as it would have caused less confusion.

No, I was not kidding. Scientific consensus has ALWAYS been a lazy way of 'argument by authprity'.

Just because there is a so-called consensus that something is true - adds not ONE IOTA of merit to that consensus actually being correct.

As I said, Galileo is laughing.

Not a joke - not by a country mile, sir.
