Conservatives' Trust in Science at All-Time Low
A new study suggests a growing partisan divide as science plays an
increasing role in policy debates.

A new report suggests the number of conservatives who trust science is
at an all-time low


This may explain some of the rhetoric we've been hearing in GOP stump
speeches of late: The number of conservatives who say they have a "great
deal" of trust in science has fallen to 35 percent, down 28 points from
the mid-1970s, according to a new academic paper.

The study, which was published Thursday in the American Sociological
Review, found that liberal and moderate attitudes toward the topic have
remained mostly unchanged since national pollsters first began posing
the question in 1974, back when roughly half of all liberals and
conservatives expressed significant trust in science.

The peer-reviewed research paper explains: "These results are quite
profound because they imply that conservative discontent with science
was not attributable to the uneducated but to rising distrust among
educated conservatives."

The man behind the study, UNC Chapel Hill's Gordon Gauchat, says the
change comes as conservatives have rebelled against the so-called "elite."

"It kind of began with the loss of Barry Goldwater and the construction
of Fox News and all these [conservative] think tanks. The perception
among conservatives is that they're at a disadvantage, a minority,"
Gauchat explained in an interview with U.S. News. "It's not surprising
that the conservative subculture would challenge what's viewed as the
dominant knowledge production groups in society—science and the media."

The sociologist suggested that the shift is also likely tied to
science's changing role in the national dialogue. In the middle of the
20th century, science was tied closely with NASA and the Department of
Defense, but now it more frequently comes up when the conversation
shifts to the environment and government regulations.

"Science has become autonomous from the government—it develops knowledge
that helps regulate policy, and in the case of the EPA, it develops
policy," he said. "Science is charged with what religion used to be
charged with—answering questions about who we are and what we came from,
what the world is about. We're using it in American society to weigh in
on political debates, and people are coming down on a specific side."

You can read a more of the interview at U.S. News, a more detailed recap
of the the study over the Los Angeles Times, or check out the full paper

Up here we had recent news reports of government funded scientists
being muffled by our current neo Conservative federal govt.
The scientists can't say anything negative about the companies that
'influence' those conservatives.

Conservatives' Trust in Science at All-Time Low
A new study suggests a growing partisan divide as science plays an
increasing role in policy debates.


"Science" has politicized itself to the point of reducing confidence in
the "scientists" very low, somewhere near a used car salesman and a
Congressman.


Harry believes "political science" is real science.
Politics has destroyed most of what is good about America.


That is the unabridged truth.

Why? The author lies, just as does the one who posted the article here.

"The only reasonable verdict is that humans did it, in the atmosphere, with their cars and their
smokestacks. "

Such bull****. And he goes on from there...


Yep, would like to hear the liberal-socialists explain how my SUT melted
mars polar caps and IO surface ice.

Or how the antarctic if so permanent, why is 2/3rd th ice less than
10,000 years old?

Or how having more growing season for fish, plants, food in the north
and south is such a bad thing?

Sure beats Toronto and Buffalo being under 3 kilometers of ice in the
ice age. Be nicer to see ferns return to the north slopes of Alaska
like when live diversity on earth was at its peek.

Or how low sunspot activity, my SUT did that too.

Fact is they deal in fear of change and FUD for profit and political gain.

General eco farce occurs by the desire for big government to control
your life, be it liberal or conservative. But there are fewer liberal
less government types. So the main drivers are liberal-socialism that
wants it as a tax.

That is why the screw the oil companies rhetoric. Their brains are too
small to realize taxing them more means some combination of higher
prices or lower taxable wages. But it supports government greed this is
supported by statists like 0bama for the greed and blame deflection.
Sort of like Adolph Hitler, give the people someone to hate and they
will hate you less.

Conservatives have politicized science to the point where many
conservatives believe man and dinosaurs walked the earth together.


Actually it is the liberal-socialist left that wants to justify carbon
taxes. Just BS to sell taxation for nothing more than liberal-socialist
fraud and greed.

Al Gore for example, democrat liberal-socialist, to him it is about $$$

Funny, I am agnostic, and unaligned conservative libertarian.

I hope they are right, and very might be right that the world is
warming. Lets hope so, as I doubt fishing would be good on the east
coast with permanent pack ice. For if not getting warmer, it would then
be colder.

And there is more life in 1 sq. mile of nice and warm Costa Rica than in
1000 sq. miles of tundra. Did I mention I almost bought a place down
there? Want to get to Panama first....banking/investing might be easier
there though. But have a place in mind.

Eco freaks wanting cold, one year in NWT winter should shut them up
good. But warmed up, it could be double the size of Texas as good farm
land to feed people. Trouble is right now it is mostly permafrost and
not very productive.

Trouble is fear of change, panic, FUD sell. Warming might very well be
a good dead since many countries breed out of control wanting free food
for more babies to keep liberal-socialists happy.
