i (almost) hate to bring it up, but i think it has something to do with religion … an embarassingly large (40\%?) portion of americans feel compelled to dismiss geology, biology, astronomy and just about every other science to preserve the literal accuracy of the ancient mesopotamian cosmology. to do this they are taught to distrust "secular" scientists in favor of the cadre of biblical scientists who have developed an entire alternate reality (e.g. "flood geology"). these crazy rationalizations aside, the best thing for them is not to learn anything "scientific" because it always seems to bump up against one or another of these alternate realities. for example the notion of us arguing about the historical temperature record going back millions of years is just nonsense to them.— RealClimate
