Big science

From RationalWiki

"Big science" is a term created by creationists which they apply to any specific subjects or theories within science that do not fit with their viewpoint. The term is based on previous uses such as "Big Tobacco" or "Big Petroleum" which are generic terms for large companies that run the cigarette and oil businesses respectively. This is done in an attempt to characterise current consensus within the scientific community as being oppressive towards the 'small science' made up of opposing creationist view points.
