1 + 1 = 2
This is a fundamental theory of mathematics. If it were proven wrong a lot would crumble. Despite this, if someone proved it untrue scientists would test it, discuss it, and if confirmed, the new theory would be accepted. That's how science works... even things as fundamental as 1 + 1 = 2 could be reviewed and a more perfect truth can be considered.
In the political world conservatives denounce science as "just a theory". But to a scientist: scientific theory = scientific fact.
Scientific Theory = Scientific Fact
Conservatives have been engaged in a war on science. Their policies fail again and again when tested against reality. In the areas of economics, Global warming, evolution and myriad of other areas conservatives are wrong. Their philosophies and their strict father values require that they tow the party line, even when it is proven false.
The last decade was the warmest on record. We don't have time for conservatives to be wrong again. Science isn't a matter of opinion. Using the complexities of science to confuse people in order to win votes is wrong.
The Moral Mission of government is to protect and empower the people. Global warming is a serious threat, we need governments to work together to protect the people and to empower people to find solutions to the problem. I am a scientific progressive because I believe in a way forward for America.
