Abstract
Mainstream science accuses dissident scientists including the Natural Philosophy Alliance of not being able to come to a consensus. The truth is, consensus is not healthy for finding truth nor is it the best philosophy for any part of serious human endeavor. In technology, the corporate world, engineering, law, politics, sports, and many other areas, consensus is a death sentence for progress and the worst way to come up with the best solutions to problems. It is consensus that has created the major problem in physics and cosmology and is the straw man setup by both the mainstream and the Natural Philosophy Alliance that has distracted it from the task which it is doing today: allowing for competing ideas to fight it out.
