Why do people like to pretend scientists and judges are infalliable, like they can't have a personal bias?

Everyone gets a warm fuzzy feeling with doctors or scientists and like to trust them to make good decisions. Science and medicine are unknowns to most people and a little scary in some cases and most would want a person they can trust to help them navigate through it. I would not trust a politically appointed judge as far as i could throw them.

In science the personal bias gets eliminated by repetitions and peer review.

Not really

Tobacco companies pushed their nonsense for years because of corruption when they could have been exposed a lot sooner.

Confirmation bias and hoping you're as retarded as they are.

[NathanDavis]

because it is also convenient, to their bias

It's so wild to me. Even "the science is settled" stuff needs to be reexamined.
