This index contains articles demonstrating the stoopidity of scientists in some way. The results of a study may be wrong, the scientists in the study might be taking payments from a corporation, new theories being put forth might be wrong etc. Most of the links are to copies of the stories that contain no commentary on why they are examples of scientific stoopidity.

Those stories need to be commented on, but in the meantime the curious individual or the individual who is confident they can figure things out on their own, can peruse the stories to see if they already know why the stories are examples of scientific stoopidity without needing to be told.
