< Sarah Palin versus Bill Nye >. On science.

QUOTE

Palin insisted that children need to question climate change and raise doubt over scientific thought rather than blindly believing what the scientific community says.

So blind belief in science = bad. Blind belief in a god that thinks every faith but yours is in some way incomplete = good.

When the federal government starts wanting to enact laws and policy based on scripture the way they do on the flawed climate science, come back and have a meaningful discussion.

No, blind belief in ~~snake oil~~ carbon credit salesmen is bad.

Every way they have tried to tell the public about climate change has been deceptive and anti-science, right down to the words they use.
