[Vision2020] Baffling CERN Results Show Neutrinos Faster Than Light Speed

[Paul Rumelhart]

I forgot to add that I have about as much in common with religious fundamentalism as Dolly Parton has in common with a titmouse.

"This reminds me of the pseudo-scientific arguments against
anthropogenic global warming promoted aggressively in media, Internet
etc. that also convince many that climate science is fundamentally
flawed, as represented by the US National Academy of Sciences, or the
Goddard Institute for Space Studies, both of which present a large
body of compelling peer reviewed science, that indicates a very high
probability humans are dramatically altering Earth's climate, the
magnitude of which will
 continue to increase as long as human CO2
emissions continue to increase atmospheric CO2 level.

There appears to be some connection in the manner of thinking of many
religious fundamentalists who insist both evolution and anthropogenic
global warming are scientifically flawed theories."

There is a big difference between the evolution vs. intelligent design and anthopogenic global warming vs. natural global warming debates.  The main difference is that intelligent design doesn't even satisfy the criteria for being a scientific hypothesis.  It's not falsifiable, so it's not even really a debate.  Global warming "denial", on the other hand, is the null hypothesis for anthropogenic global warming.  It's what we assume is true until the AGW folks have managed to prove their hypotheses.
