This from right-wing TV anchor Candace Owens:
‘Listen. I’m not a flat-earther. I’m not a round-earther.’ Actually, what I am is, I am somebody who has left the cult of science. I have left the megachurch of science because what I have now realized is that science—what it is actually, if you think about it—is a pagan faith.”
Fortunately, very few people perceive science in this way, but I guess if you’re going to hold yourself out as one of the most prominent members of the U.S. right-wing political spokespeople, you’re essentially forced to go in this direction. Accepting science as the best way of gaining an understanding of the world around us is not an option; it’s for woke liberals. Moreover, calling science it a “pagan faith” is not going to cost you one red cent in terms of your following of American idiots.
A few hundred years ago, some poor guy suggested that the stars in the sky might be other suns around which planets like ours orbited; he was promptly burned at the stake. And going to that level of stupidity and cruelty may very well lie in our collective futures.
Whether or not this becomes a reality lies in precisely one thing: how seriously we as a civilization accept the viewpoints of morons like Candace Owens. Our future lies exactly here.

Threats to America’s Health and Safety
Those who are involved in science are concerned that American society is threated by misinformation.
Of course, MAGA crowd, the antivaxxers, the climate deniers, etc. believe the opposite, i.e., the people like Anthony Fauci, who have dedicated their entire adult lives to human health, have suddenly become corrupt, and are profiting from fake science while destroying the U.S. economy.

ACORE Statement on the Department of Interior’s Action to Halt Fully Permitted Offshore Wind Construction Projects
WASHINGTON, D.C. — The American Council on Renewable Energy (ACORE) issued the following statement from ACORE President and CEO Ray Long in response to the Department of the Interior’s action to halt fully permitted offshore wind construction projects:
“Americans expect their government and private sector to work together to ensure that the lights stay on and their electric bills are affordable. The five East Coast offshore wind projects that have been paused should be a total success story: $28 billion in committed private sector capital, expanded port infrastructure, support for domestic shipbuilding, and 10,000 good-paying local jobs—all to support a more robust, affordable, reliable, and secure electricity resource base for decades to come. Given skyrocketing electricity demand forecasts and consumers’ clear concerns about affordability, projects like these need to get over the finish line to give people confidence that government and the private sector can still deliver on big things. Unfortunately, actions like this send the opposite message at exactly the wrong time.”
