pdq... a "denier" can be one who insists on HIS version of facts while denying the version that the scientific community generally accepts. Sometimes they win... Galileo did...sometimes they lose...like smokers.

I do NOT assume nor did I claim that any belief in contradiction to the majority is automatically wrong; merely that certain types of denial share certain types of fallacious thinking. One CAN even end up being 'right' with bad reasoning....but that's not the way to bet.


But I'm glad I have kept you, at least, entertained.
