Pure bull****. You have absolutely no proof for that ridiculous statement.
Scientists agree because the evidence leads them to a conclusion. that's

referring to the popular expositors like Gore who take science - incomplete
science in this case - and imbue it with breathtaking certainty by means

scientists use voting in the practice of their profession. You and Freddy
need to lighten up...
