line of bull from priests and lab coat clerics The question is, how do you determine if it is a "line of bull"? For example: 1) Evolutionary biology and 2) Anthropogenic Global Warming There are no end of people on both sides of the above two examples, so how do you know who is producing BS, and why do you know this? I'm sure you can think of other examples, such as the multitude of pet theories in economics, such thinks as smoking and cancer, etc. All have pundits who will pound the podium expounding their POV, but are all POV's equally worthwhile? If not, how do you determine which are the more likely correct views?
