The prevailing opinion is to just let the scientists do their work, and don't second-guess them. Well, there is a reason that they are being second-guessed. Look at all the harm that has occurred because of the old scientific consensus that we should be removing fats from our diet. The reasons for this consensus was not only shoddy studies, but there was a lot of politics involved, drowning out dissenting voices. Today, there are a lot of studies being funded by organizations that are influencing the results of those studies. We should be questioning scientific studies. The problem is, people are going about it the wrong way. They are just throwing out the scientific method, logic, etc. Science is not flawed, but the studies are flawed, in that more than just science is being used to influence conclusions. There has to be some blame put on the scientific community for why it is so popular to question their work in the modern era.
