Dr. John Clauser has made his mark and reputation. He is 81 and so he feels free to speak the truth. In his article, he speaks out forcefully about the Climate Change pseudoscience of the IPCC. He is now having speeches canceled because he dared to speak out against the climate change lies. Clauser is right. Modern science is now operating more like a bureaucratic business that has been captured by leftist ideologues.

Football isn’t getting better. They keep changing the rules of football. It is woke, racist and full of people pretending to be men - just like science.

science is now a career that depends upon getting academic positions, funding, publications, growing prestige, and usually a government stamp of approval.

The author betrays an academic bias. Scientists in industry must produce real, usable results.

I could never call someone’s writing a ‘piece’.

This article by Strom has a lot of talking about himself.

His complaint about ‘science’ is actually about careers, who gets rewarded, prestige, media-worthy, motivations, stature. Those things are about people, not science.

He does say something that has affected science itself:

“At first, experiments were cheap and even self-funded. Today experiments often cost millions, hundreds of millions, or even billions of dollars”

In other words, the experimentation and discovery that is relatively easy to do and explain to others has been done. New scientific discoveries are no longer easy to explain to or seem relevant by the layman.

Claims from both sides about global warming are supported with ‘science’ but in my opinion both short-term and long-term global temperature predictions are impossible because there are too many variables.

Excellent article. It has a strong emphasis on Truth, for example:

“Simply put, scientists are not primarily engaged in the pursuit of truth.”

Modern science originated in Christendom. Coincidence? Romans and Greeks worshipped multiple Gods. The idea of truth lacked a firm foundation. Pilate reasonably asked, “What is truth?”

Jewish monotheism gave a foundation for truth: God’s truth. The New Testament strongly embraces truth. Add the discovery of Greek rationalism, but now with monotheism, and we get the foundation of modern science.

So what happened? Kark Marx came along and distinguished between “bourgeois logic” and “proletarian logic.” That metastasized into Black math, women’s truth and so on. Marxism teaches that advancing the cause represents a higher morality than telling the truth. And what is truth anyway, if you’ve got your truths and I have mine? Should we be surprised that political correctness and funding, and the two conjoined, count for more than the pursuit of Truth today?

There was little science before Christianity and there is a lot of junk (or fake) science in our post-Christian world.

The “Science Crisis” is its consensus thinking - all else flows from that.
