Scientists Have Become High Priests Hunting Down "Heretics"

Regarding the "settled" science of global warming, Canadian reporter Ezra Levant observed:

I'm joking… but only a little bit because so-called scientists have become high priests, not welcoming questioners, but hunting them down and rooting them out like religious heretics. St. Suzuki himself once proposed that global warming skeptics be jailed, he really said that! A writer for Forbes magazine, a magazine that calls itself a 'capitalist tool' recently wrote that if a skeptics home burns down... we shouldn't send the fire department and skeptics are routinely compared to Nazis and are called deniers and equated to holocaust deniers... seriously!

Skeptics becomes "realists," as James Dinglepole reports that MIT atmospheric physicist Professor Richard Lindzen addressing the House of Commons in February [2012] said this:

"Perhaps we should stop accepting the term 'skeptic' because 'skepticism' implies doubts about a plausible proposition. Current global warming alarm hardly represents a plausible proposition. Twenty years of repetition and escalation of claims does not make it more plausible. Quite the contrary, the failure to improve the cause over 20 years makes the case even less plausible, as does the evidence from Climategate and other instances of overt cheating."
