Is this science that we're doing right now? No, this is debate in the service of a particular agenda. No one is stopping you from "looking into the bright side of the holocaust", as you put it, on your own time. There are plenty of holocaust "researchers" who question its place in history. I'm sure they would welcome your company.

But if you were to pose that question in the context of a discussion about a Holocaust survivor's fund, for example, then that's definitely not historical research you're engaging in.

Likewise, when you interrupt discussion about global warming with "maybe there are good sides", without providing any actual evidence for your supposition, then your actions have the effect of redirecting the conversation away from the scientific consensus and casting a shadow of doubt, on the basis of nothing more than speculation.
