You're wrong, science isn't about consensus and people get this unbelievably wrong so many times it's frustrating ... Is a consensus supposed to be right when most scholars in Galileo's time belived that the sun revolved around the earth ? Another trick question for you is if Newton's Laws surrounding motion is more correct than Einstein's theory of special relativity according to consensus at the time Einstein pusblished his paper ? And I am not saying that the scientific community is stuck in one country. It's that they are stuck in an echochamber where progressives limit academic freedom when it comes to the studies of the human genome ... At least religion doesn't claim to be academically honest when large parts of the scientific community shames the shit upon those who studies between human genetic lines ... |
That's...not how it works. Scientists gather observeable, repeatable/reproducable data in order to formulate theories. As more data becomes available those theories may change/be dissmissed. Heck, the main drive for a scientist is to prove a theory wrong or add appreciably to a theory. Or even formulate a new one. That's how progress is made. In contrast with religion where you have a set of immovable, unchangeable beliefs on which you base your entire existence.
