Virtually everything I learned in science classes as a young pupil has been replaced which taught me that science is never settled. Thus, the most scientifically illiterate people I've encountered in recent years are those who try to tell me that I am "scientifically illiterate" because I don't accept their science as "gospel". (I just love that turn of phrase) This is especially true of those espousing "man made climate change" as a method of controlling human behavior. But, hey, you get a big thumbs up for sharing this is piece of proslytization...

Jack, did you even bother to watch the video? Because if you had, and then used the term "their science," in spite of the video, you have chosen a remarkably poor way to address the issues.

Capt Gregory Prickett - Sorry, I tried but couldn't watch much. The woman's on camera presence is appalling and she has no apparent credentials to be lecturing anyone about anything...

CPT Jack Durish The only thing that should be accepted as gospel is actual gospel...and that's only becasue it's literally gospel. That doesn't mean it's accurate, but it does make it gospel.
Science is humankind's current best educated guess about the world we find ourselves in.
The reason that science changed what it said about everything you learned in science class is because new evidence and new relationships between evidence was found, so the shot group was tightened. A worldview that assumes that what it was told originally is truth without testing methods or even acknowledging a need for testing methods is merely lucky if it happens to be right and has no way to find out one way or the other.
What you are espousing is akin to the idea that a Commander should build a battle plan based on initial reports, and then completely ignore all intel received after the CONOP was produced...forever.

Her voice? How about her mannerisms, her affectations, he smugness, her lack of standing to be telling anyone about scientific illiteracy, etc, etc, etc...

CPT Jack Durish I don't deny those things, but right from the start, her voice grated on me.
