I forgot... only liberals, progressives and Democrats believe in Science. Well, just as long as it doesn't conflict with your agenda. Then it can't be Science. You go ahead and run with that but don't forget to pull your head out of that hole you have it buried in before you start running...

I am curious about that. Why is that? Evolution, climate change...why doesn't the right believe in science?

Maybe it's useful to replace "belief" with "place trust in". And of course such attitudes are not exclusive to the political right (although very tightly correlated with a subset of it). But I get your point. One interesting thing is that attitudes regarding science can be shown to correlate closely with attitudes regarding proper relationships within social groups and parenting. Sort of like science reveals the world as probabilistic and uncertain, which erodes the framework needed to properly raise a family. One interesting thing to read along these line is chapter 3 of the (free stuff) book at the link below.

Smart man!

"Nye said, “Only 40 percent of people in the U.S. think that Congress should be addressing this and that’s because certain conservative groups, especially from the fossil fuel industry, have been very successful in introducing the idea that scientific uncertainty, plus or minus two percent, is the same as plus or minus 100 percent.”"
