Just to clarify a few things:
Catastrophic anthropogenic
global warming is not settled
science. A significant number of climatologists question the supposed “consensus”
on this point. (The 97% number you hear is based on a 2009 survey in which the analysis
was based on 77 respondents, 75 of whom agreed with the two rather vague questions
asked in the survey.) Yet Democrats in California
attempted to criminalize speaking out against the party line on climate change.
One wonders what Galileo would have to say about that.
The idea that people are born “gay”
is not settled science. In fact, it
isn’t science at all. There is precisely zero evidence for it, whether in
genetic studies or twin studies. Similarly, the idea that sexual orientation is
immutable flies in the face of the many people whose orientation has changed.
It is demonstrably false empirically despite the political classes being wedded
to the idea.
It is settled science that one cannot transition from male to female
or female to male. With the exception of genetic or gestational anomalies,
those categories are fixed by biology and cannot be changed.
It is settled science that human life begins at conception. At that
point a living, genetically distinct human organism comes into existence. It is
a human life at a very early stage of development. Separating the human being
from the person has no scientific basis; it is a matter of philosophy, law and
convenience. Abraham Lincoln suggested that the Civil War would continue, “… until every drop of blood drawn
with the lash, shall be repaid by another drawn with the sword….” What does
this mean in light of the 58 million human lives in the US that have been taken since Roe
v. Wade in the name of a philosophical idea?
Remind me again, which
political party is anti-science?
