I don't want to change the subject of this article, but you'll find that certain radtrads, who fancy themselves catholics, believe that being a catholic means believing that scripture is the best guide to physical reality. For example, people like Marty E believe the earth is 6000 years old and that humans lived concurrently with dinosaurs.Why? Because a literal reading of Genesis says so, and those jews in the desert 4000 years ago knew more about reality than scientists, except of course when they get sick, in which case they go to MD's trained in modern biology. They don't go to faith healers or blood-letters. The same inconsistency applies to their climate denial. The MD's use modern science and the radtrads trust them, but when 97% of climate scientists say something based on modern science, these scientists suddenly  just don't know what they're talking about.
