Yup, that's what anyone who dares doubt the 'concensus' is called. I guess if we are going with the theory that if told often enough that something is true and we shouldn't question it, we should just believe, surely this subject now falls under the category of faith, not science. In which case I'm getting my uneducated-non-scientific ass down to church to pray for my eternal soul. Same reasoning as climate-scarers. I have just had a 'discussion' with someone calling themselves a scientist elsewhere, and when i posed a series of fair questions, I was told that I wasn't able to understand. Standard response - why not try explaining to me instead of patronising and then dismissing me. This whole malarkey may be true, but the fact that this has become a politicised ideology which cannot and must not be questioned makes me want to scream. Lunatics.
