What? I have not criticised news idea,only your insistent use of logical fallacies,with an inability/unwillingness knowledge such errors.

False dichotomy,yet ANOTHER logical fallacy. You really have no idea do you..
In science EVERY question remains open to new evidence,new ideas,revision and change. Not being a living organism,sciences is not evolutionary with in my understanding. Further, the history of science shows that scientific change has as often as not been revolutionary as emerging power paradigms compete with old ones.
To accuse me of closed mindedness because I fault your arguments is yet another logical fallacy,called an ad homimen attack.
Bored now.

Yes on paper we are open to new ideas and theories. On paper we do follow the scientific method. But...
The truth is as much as scientist want to keep the rule of thumb they are limited on research because it costs money. In the science room we are limited to what we can do and what we can discover based on the budgets that are provided to our scientists, yes I do know that does not stop someone to come up with new theories or new ideas but it does cost money to test it.
Not only that science can evolve only if a budget is there but the people providing the budget really does not have an open mind.
Science does in fact keeps evolving but most people do not want to risk going deeper because its not profitable. That is my argument. I know it is the fact of life and reality but that is something maybe in the future we can change.
