The idea that science has no place in government is fucktarded.

At the very least Congress should be forced to study actual Science regarding things like Global Warming. But with a lot of those republicans, you could make it audio and they would plug their ears with their fingers and scream "I'm not listening! Regulation is bad fer jobs! Bad!"

Well, placental mammals are strange, but most land vertebrate females have one single opening for reproduction, urination and defecation.

How's that an argument for anything?
If I call myself a surgeon, does that discredit genuine surgeons?

No, but if a major portion of those whose votes count in deciding who gets to operate have a long history of recognizing any self-styled surgeon as a genuine surgeon, then "Only surgeons should perform surgery" offers very little assurance that any standard of surgery would actually exist when only "surgeons" perform surgery.

I get the feeling people are too bogged down in the same entrapment democratic voting is in, where anyone can put into a electorate position regardless of qualifications - do you actually believe this is the case in any scientific field?

Boru I can see why I blocked you.
I wonder how you can read him if you've blocked him?
Perhaps you blocked him on one of your banned accounts ... ?
