Mongo, Peter Shor, your humble servant . . . https://www.math.columbia.edu/~woit/wordpress/?p=12786#comments Peter Shor says: April 7, 2022 at 9:03 am I would have to disagree that there’s no anti-science movement. Having talked to a teenager who was educated in a Christian school, she was definitely taught according to an anti-science viewpoint—that you can’t trust anything scientists say, because they have their own self-serving motives for saying these things. (This may actually be true to a much lesser degree—look at the string theory apologists. But the best lies contain an element of truth.) And I have to assume that this viewpoint is reasonably common among evangelical Christians, who make up around a third of the U.S. population.
