HIJACKING OF SCIENCE BY THE DEVIL
If your faith in today's scientific establishment was shaken recently by successive waves of fraud on the part of climate scientists, from systematically suppressing evidence of global cooling, to attempting to erase the Middle Ages, to falsely claiming the Himalayan glaciers were rapidly melting, get ready for more scientific corruption, a lot more.
Politically and financially motivated pseudo-science is widespread and utterly out of control, extending far beyond climate research and into virtually every major scientific field.
Did you know:
* The world's largest association of psychologists not only endorses same-sex marriage, but actually promoted adult-child sex as healthy in its peer-reviewed journal?
* Doctors and researchers have for years studiously avoided acknowledging the documented link between abortion and breast cancer?
* "Scientific" studies are now being generated that conclude gun ownership is a health hazard?
* Thanks to psychiatry's reliance on mood-altering drugs rather than enlightened counseling, between 20 and 30 million Americans today take powerful anti-depressants, and between 4 and 9 million children take dangerous psycho-stimulants like Ritalin?
* Top academics admit evolution is "unproven and unprovable," but say it's the only alternative to believing in a Creator, which they find "unthinkable"?
The centerpiece of "HIJACKING SCIENCE" is an in-depth exploration of what is causing much of the corruption in science today, written for Whistleblower by Ph.D. scientist Arthur Robinson, who co-founded the Linus Pauling Institute of Science and Medicine with Linus Pauling in 1973.
"Can we rely upon news reports that tell us the newly reported findings of American scientists?" asks Robinson, currently head of the Oregon Institute of Science and Medicine. "No! A very large group of pseudo-scientists is now present among our scientists, and it is they who seek and receive most of the publicity brought to us by our print and television media."

The most urgent examples to my mind lie in medicine and the food industry. For example, the evidence on obesity has been manipulated for decades. When the World Health Organisation wanted to publish findings that the obesity epidemic was derived not from fat in foods but from sugar, and especially corn syrup, the American food industry were powerful enough to block this. In the case of drugs, the big pharmaceutical industries have utterly distorted medical science in their search for profit at the expense of our health. When they publish "scientific" evidence to support their claims, they are typically using very selective and effectively farudulent methods to achieve this.
What will protect us (to a degree) from such abuse of science is not resorting to a dogmatic and authoritarian religion, which is just obscurantist and leaves these frauds unchallenged. Instead, what is required is good science and science independent of the relevant industries. Since that cannot come from commerical sponsorship, it can only be achieved through independent and publicly funded universities.
When religious agencies point out errors in scientific claims, they have to rely on science and engage with science to do this. Science in abstract, the scientific method, has no religion and no ideology. But the practice of science is clearly value laden and requires constant scrutiny.
