Add to that the problem that modern science often leaves empirical evidence behind, in favour of "model wanking".

This is especially common in "climate science" and in theoretical physics, giving us such nonsense as multiple worlds and dimensions which some people seem to take a literal truth.

And don't even get me started on the environmentalists, the biggest sinners of them all.
