Tsk, Sharmuta. I love you, but that there’s an “ad hominem.”

Every argument must stand or fall on its own merits. The personal characters of the people supporting or attacking an argument are irrelevant.

I see. Associating denial with the Discovery Institute isn’t permitted, but associating acceptance with the recently demonized John Holdren gets updings. Because the fallacy is working both ways here. Perhaps it should be applied equally or not at all.
