"he/she relies on consensus amongst those who have studied those theories....." Sorry, but that is a complete load of cobblers. "

Once in a blue moon I have cause to agree with Matt Bryant. Today is one of those days. The Scientific Method has no room for "consensus" as scientific evidence. It demands experimentation and analysis of results. Good scientists will accept findings from experimentation that refute their theories and still think of it as science, they won't bend the data or adjust mathematical models until the data fits the theory.

Explanation by consensus alone is the domain of religion.
