I actually find scientist to be among the most honest of us, climate gate not withstanding. Even the militant athiests among them who hold to a specific belief will not hide or fudge numbers which tend to disprove their positions -they will try to head critics off and explain them, but usually not out and out lie about them. (Again, climate gate is one of those rare instances where a whole lotta UN environmental weenie scientists were willing to do anything for political purposes.)
