And it's this: does anybody know if any active scientists have changed their mind about the whole hypothesis from doubters to believers? You can find stories of scientists who originally were advocates, like Judith Curry, but then after more research changed their mind and are now labeled "deniers". Most seem to be people who were well established and safe from being fired, like Curry, who had tenure, and has said that she would not have dared to speak up if she hadn't, if she had been just in the beginning stages of her career, because saying what she is now saying would have made her unemployable in the current era.
But the main question is pretty much this: how many scientists, especially well respected ones, have gone from advocates to "deniers" after studying the hypothesis longer, compared to how many have maybe gone from "denier" to advocate?
Because all you can easily find online are all in the first group. And if there are more of those, or especially if there are none of the latter type, that certainly would say something about the whole thing.
And could be used as a point in arguments with the staunch believers you have to deal with in your life.
Quick question: why does this matter?
I'm looking for ammunition when it comes to arguing with people who believe in the thing. Isn't at least part of the whole point here trying to wake up those who aren't yet awake? Even if it is just a few people you know personally you think you just might be able to get to?
