More accurately, Fauci was raised catholic. He abandoned his faith for secular humanism.

If it’s all true, it’s even worse than we thought.

Cruz and Paul need to ask Fauci how many genders there are. Fauci will be afraid to say, “Two”.

"So it's easy to criticize. But they're really criticizing science, because I represent science. That's dangerous," Fauci added.

"Science" didn't lie to Congress, you arrogant little sand flea, you did.

I think someone should ask Fauci who says, he trusts the science, when he believes life begins and if there are more than two genders. We all know he is appeasing to the left. It would be interesting to see how he trips all over himself trying to answer these questions. Does he trust the proven science or will he expose himself as the political science fraudulent hack that he is? It would be interesting to watch him tick off the media and couple of people who still believe him.

I can hear Fauci yelling, "HELP ME, !!! HELP ME!!!" in that high pitched little voice.

“Science,” spake St. Anthony Faux Xi, “comes from my mouth.”

He, Joseph Mengele, and Trofim Lysenko should spend eternity playing pinochle while listenting to Lawrence Welk records in hell.

Don’t like Fauci, but testing whether a naturally occurring virus can infect humans, does not sound like gain of function to me.

As I said previously...

SCIENCE ISN'T MATH.

It never was.

And it sure isn't now.

Remember how science said ulcers were induced chiefly by stress or spicy food? It turns out, they are induced chiefly by bacteria. Whoops.

The history of science is littered with "no wait....that's wrong...THIS is right..." going through the rinse and repeat cycle endlessly.

And that's ok. Inquiry and challenge and "being a science heretic" is, in many ways, how mankind learns more and can fix more problems.

But science isn't math. Your checking account balance is the sum of deposits less sum of withdrawals. Always. Forever.

The problem arises when people try to equate science with math...usually they call it "settled science." And, to be sure, robust inquiry and disciplined application of the scientific method usually gives you clear and distinct results. Then, science is settled...until we get new data or better techniques, and then we get "wait a minute..".

For example, there was a most excellent article posted on how "settled science" wasn't so settled, wherein:

seems that Earth has been misplaced. According to a new map of the Milky Way galaxy, the Solar System's position isn't where we thought it was. Not only is it closer to the galactic centre - and the supermassive hole therein, Sagittarius A* - it's orbiting at a faster clip.

It further noted other "errors" in SCIENCE:

A good recent example of this is the red giant star Betelgeuse, which turned out to be closer to Earth than previous measurements suggested. This means that it's neither as large nor as bright as we thought. Another is the object CK Vulpeculae, a star that exploded 350 years ago. It's actually much farther away, which means that the explosion was brighter and more energetic, and requires a new explanation, since previous analyses were performed under the assumption it was relatively low energy

The other problem arises when Certain Powers work overtime to suppress assiduous inquiry. Which, is what we have today as well. It's a bad double whammy.

In the interest of full disclosure, my "science isn't math" quote came from a recent post on social sciences, that featured this brilliant give and take involving a Harvard faculty member critical of Charles Murray from the original article, that is worth reprinting - it is with regard to the "certainty of SCIENCE":

"so why should we let someone teach social science that we know to be wrong in our social science courses?"

Because it is possible that you are wrong.
Science is not mathematics. Newtonian physics was wrong. And social science is a further three rungs down in certainty from science.

Your level of certainty and arrogance about what can be said, and probably thought, smacks of religion, and not science. This is a political religion that permeates academia at the moment. And which I am fairly sure you will swear does not infect you, while the rest of us can see the symptoms quite plainly.

Only religions ban heretics from speaking because of the wrong-think they might cause. Real science loves a good heretic. In fact, honestly, the entire goal of science is to be a heretic. To have an idea that no other person ever had. Science is the pretty much the antithesis of your thought-police approach.

Fauci represents science the way Hernando Cortez represented Christ to the native Americans. Not very well, and to their detriment.

Science: The earth is flat!

Science: The sun revolves around the earth.

Science: Covid-19 came from a bat.
