13. No, it's not anti-science; from your quote: "First we guess it" - which is what this poll is

Your quote also says "If it disagrees with experiment it is wrong",
well this result is consistent with neutrino mass measurements as well as previous velocity measurements:

"Curiously, when taken at the face value, all results point to a negative mass squared"

"In the early 1980s, first measurements of neutrino speed were done using pulsed pion beams ... This measurement has been repeated using the MINOS detectors, which found the speed of 3 GeV neutrinos to be 1.000051(29) c. "
