Let us test the claim that most scientists are whores with little pride and honor.
Answer this if you are a scientist.
For one million dollars, you get to approve of something false. Would you take the money?
Is it not enough? Maybe ten millions would be a better offer? Maybe a hundred million dollars would be a sufficient sum for you?
If someone offered to make you a billionaire in exchange of a big lie, would you take it? Would you envy a man who took such an offer and became filthy rich?
