Argument from authority is not always invalid; especially when virtually all of the authorities on the subject agree. In fact you can&#x27;t find a statement I made in the original post you objected to, that isn&#x27;t true.  It is factually true that if you disagree with most scientists on a subject, you are probably wrong.  I didn&#x27;t say you were definitely wrong, I said it was near 100% certain that you were wrong.<p>&gt; It&#x27;s weird you are attacking someone who agrees with you in policy. Just because he does not think &quot;correctly&quot;.<p>No, it isn&#x27;t weird.  It&#x27;s perfectly rational to disagree with people because they reach the right conclusion for the wrong reasons because &quot;thinking&quot; wrong is often dangerous and leads to superstition.
