If you had received a slightly more intensive education in scientific history, you would know that unorthodox views are rarely accepted by the scientific community at large, Mister Verville. For a recent example, it wasn't until nearly the end of the 20th century that the theory of plate tectonics was accepted by a majority of US geologists, despite it being first demonstrated in the 18th... Or maybe not, as Wikipedia is annoyingly different in it's recording of this. Either way, scientists dislike being told they are wrong in their beliefs, almost as much as clergy and has little to do with some supposed 'PC Brigade'. Although, it should be accepted that the majority of activists, of both sides, misuse data to suit thier purposes.
