We use science on this website to study the issues of theology, material science, & biology to present us with 'facts' from which we might derive some reasonable conclusions. Peer review is a result of too many articles being published. 'Publish articles, gain tenure' has tremendous traction. Peer review causes 'group think' because concensus is controlled by a few. -My conclusion: do away with tenure and with peer review.
