"Yes it is, and that is a very good thing."

Nothing to fear, or mistrust scientific advancements helps make this a better world for all of us.

It would be very detrimental if science was unchanging, and stagnate.

Do you not agree?"

No! I sure don't agree! There "is" something to fear when there is political motivation or monetary motivation driving some of the outcomes. I'd be a fool not to mistrust and take everything that is presented before me with a great big grain of salt. And I'm no fool.

Science is only as honest and trustworthy as those who present it to us.

And what examples do you have for the political, or monetary motivation?

That is why there is peer-review, that process will weed out any ulterior motives.

If you do not have the evidence to back up your hypothesis then it will not make it thru the peer-review process.
