Minnesota GOP lawmaker Mary Franson dismissed climate change concerns in a state committee hearing, saying her faith in Jesus Christ—not scientists—guides her view
I mean, I can get a gas chromatograph, then test it however many times I need to, to prove to myself that it’s accurate, then use it to test whatever I’m suspicious of. I don’t feel the need personally, but if a person wants to, they can. It’s honestly not even as expensive as I would have expected- plenty of options under €1000.
And for more advanced science, the same applies- it would require a lot more faith to believe that everyone with more than two college chemistry classes is lying about the nature of the world than that they’re not.
But yes, you need faith in either direction. Just a lot less of it if science is real.

Yep. Which is all I’m saying to several people’s apparent shock and horror.
