The method in the case of quantum physics was to meet their extraordinary claims with extraordinary evidence. Einstein did not resist the findings of quantum mechanics, only their interpretations, holding out hope that he could make a hidden variable theory work. Quantum mechanics become accepted because they were able to back up their theories with experimental data that could be explained in no other way.
Like a good scientist, I’m willing to follow logic and evidence to their logical conclusions. But when I actually look at the “logic” that is being used to justify doomerist conclusions, it always seems incredibly weak (and I have looked, extensively). I think people are rejecting your arguments not because you are a rogue outsider, but because they don’t think your arguments are very good.
