Living in denial: Why sensible people reject the truth - opinion - 19 May 2010 - New Scientist
june 2010 by michielbuddingh
Long, elaborate treatment of the increasingly virulent denial of unpleasant scientific claims. Touches upon but doesn't seem to fully explore the consequences of the fact that the 'rift' between science-believers and science-deniers is increasingly one determined by the willingness of the former group to trust the white-labcoated priest class. For all science's legitimate claims to falsifiability, the average consumer cannot test scientific claims for him or herself.
