The phrase "scientific consensus" is a broad-brush term used to promote a particular viewpoint and set of beliefs. The "consensus" has been imposed on many in the scientific community who, when they opt out of controversy, are presumed to "consent" to particular theories, even though much of the data supporting these theories is questionable.
