I did not come anywhere near close to saying that any old garbage can get through the scientific peer review system. If you re-read my posts properly, you will see that my points are very plain and simple: (1) nothing in science is taken seriously unless it has been verified in the peer review system, and (2) the peer reviewers are human beings, and there is a distinct possibility that one reviewer of the submitted evidence could potentially interpret it in a completely different manner from another reviewer. To repeat, this is one of the main reasons why the mathematical formalisms in quantum mechanics are interpreted in a multitude of different ways.
I think you are being extremely disingenuous now. Please explain to me why the points I have tried to make (in the paragraph above) are not clear enough to you.
I see debates as an exchange of ideas, where people can learn from each other. I just get the impression that you're much more interested in coming across as the "winner" in a debate rather than actually being absorbed and interested in the content of the discussion.
