Cracks Widen in IL House Democratic Caucus as Pressure Mounts on Speaker Welch Over Benton Scandal

For several years I have been suspicious of the agenda of so-called "climate change" scientists because they always claim that only their side of the climate change debate is "settled science" and cannot be questioned by other scientists who have doubts. They ridicule any dissenter as a "climate change denier" who is probably paid by energy companies. This "settled science" claim is found only in the climate debate.


All other fields of study are open to free and fair debate and challenge by all scientists.  For example, over the last 30 years astronomers have several times revised their estimates of the age of the universe but no one ever accuses them of being "age of universe deniers."  

They simply draw new temporary conclusions about how old the universe is until newer data might force them to conclude the universe is older than a previous estimate. If new data finds a new or unusual use for an old drug, no one claims the research of other medical researchers may never be challenged due to "settled science."

What if the "settled science" people in climate change are themselves a "cult" that needs to be exposed?
