“I want to pause here and talk about this notion of consensus, and the rise of
what has been called consensus science. I regard consensus science as an
extremely pernicious development that ought to be stopped cold in its tracks.
Historically, the claim of consensus has been the first refuge of scoundrels; it
is a way to avoid debate by claiming that the matter is already settled.
Whenever you hear the consensus of scientists agrees on something or other,
reach for your wallet, because you’re being had.
“Let’s be clear: the work of science has nothing whatever to
do with consensus. Consensus is the business of politics. Science, on the
contrary, requires only one investigator who happens to be right, which means
that he or she has results that are verifiable by reference to the real world.
In science consensus is irrelevant. What is relevant is reproducible results.
The greatest scientists in history are great precisely because they broke with
the consensus.
There is no such thing as consensus science. If it’s
consensus, it isn’t science. If it’s science, it isn’t consensus. Period.”
“… Finally, I would remind you to notice where the claim of consensus is
invoked. Consensus is invoked only in situations where the science is not solid
enough. Nobody says the consensus of scientists agrees that E = mc². Nobody says
the consensus is that the sun is 93 million miles away. It would never occur to
anyone to speak that way.” ~
