The scientific method is not a debate between opposing theories. The scientific method is the process of falsifying and verifying claims or hypothesis. When a hypothesis is confirmed by unwavering, repeatable reprocibility, only then does it become a theory. And a theory is NOT an established scientific fact. A theory is a 'best explanation' for reproducible results based upon observed facts.
When anyone gives a unfalsifiable claim that cannot be challenged based upon opinion or 'consensus' this is not science. It is religion.
When anyone tells you to, 'trust the science' or 'the scientific consensus' that person is proselyting a religion and is NOT a scientist but rather is a cultist. There is no such thing as, 'consensus' in actual science. Science is not a democracy or a social club where popular opinion determines the truth or falsity of a claim. Science is a long established method of inquiry and has nothing to do with group think, but is diametrically opposed to group think and cultism.
Most profiles and accounts on social media that mention, 'science' wouldn't know the scientific method if it bit them on the nose. No real scientist ever 'trusts the science' but rather verifies or falsifies every claim by attempting to repeat the claimed results.
Most people also don't know the differences between theory, hypothesis, conjecture, claim, fact, and speculation. When you see the word, 'science' on the Internet, always assume it is delusional bullshit until proven otherwise, because most probably it is.
