This is utter nonsense:<p>> "Yet this belief — that science is somehow subjective and should be practiced and judged accordingly — has recently taken hold in academic, governmental and medical settings."<p>I've never heard any rational person espouse this view, it's not normal, no reasonable experienced scientist would ever adopt this nonsensical concept.<p>The NYTimes has become another part of the clown show, I guess. Oh hey I hear Saddam has WMDs maybe that's related?
