Not particularly, in my opinion. Look at any group derided, not by the scientific community, but by the laymen who accept scientific consensus; Antivaxers, climate change deniers, YECs. They raise one or two, often valid, objections to the current state of affairs and rather than getting a reasonable, coherent explanation for why it's the scientific consensus, they're mocked, again, by laymen who really couldn't answer their questions anyway. They questioned the divinity of popular science, and as heretics, deserve to be burned. People are reasonable and logical by default. We form our beliefs from knowledge and experience, and these groups are no exception.
