Dean of MIT resigns for lying

The dean of MIT resign for lying about academic credentials. This should tell you a lot about scientists. If the dean of MIT is a liar what about lower level scientists?

Simply because a scientist says something does not make it true. Back in the 50's scientists paid by cigarette firms were debunking nicotine causing cancer. Like all debunkers they were using flawed data that led to the death of millions. There where even doctors that came out and said that cigarettes were good for you.

Ask scientists now about that "research" that "proved" no connection between cigarettes and cancer and they will tell you "I don't know what you are talking about, look I am very busy -"

Science is a religion not based on finding the truth, but on helping maintain the status quo. Pet theories that should have been discarded years ago are parroted as truth. Open your eyes.
