Surprise surprise, denies AGW. I’m not surprised that those who don’t respect the opinions of scientists for one theory also disrespect it for another.

I wonder how open these people would be to teaching the controversy to all ideas. Let’s say, teach the Holocaust controversy. There’s no way 12 million people were gassed, it just wasn’t possible if you consider the rate of ovens and the speed at which a human body burns! Tons of deniers make these arguments seemingly based in “science” which are just. plain. wrong. Do we feel the need to teach that nonsense to our kids? Of. fucking. course. not. Or, what about the 9/11 conspiracy theories? Or every other alternative (hippy) theory out there that wants to put the blame for every single problem on the West?

Yeah. I’m sure conservatives would love that. I’m sure it wouldn’t rightfully be called brainwashing.


You quoted my reply to Salamantis’ comment where he agreed that “Science proves and disproves Science”…
You “brainwash” someone by pounding a single, one-sided viewpoint over and over into their heads until they believe there is no other viewpoint what so ever. Do you agree? Now that dosen’t mean everything under the sun should be taught in school, especially public schools, does it?
