Thanks for contributing here this is a general chat forum limited to astronomy and science but I think folk should know about the possibility that science is being used distastefully to push certain political barrows... science is the losser was my point.

Religion, politics and other influences have affected the 'scientific method' (one of the greatest products of the human mind) ever since it was developed. It's understandable I suppose, but very unfortunate.
As I have a special interest in the topic of human-induced GW, I've put more into this thread than the astronomy ones (still a beginner in those). The GW business is a perfect example of your original point about "science being the loser".
Looks like you're winding up the topic ... just as well, I'm exhausted!
