“It is time that sceptical scientists abandoned this absurd concept that humanity includes a tiny minority of sensible, level-headed, logical and completely trustworthy scientists, and everyone else may be freely assumed to be either a thundering liar or extremely ignorant and stupid.”
— John D. Ralphs
