Yeah, I had not heard the phrase before, but I know what it means now. Big Think has an article about Bill Maher using the same type of arguments Creationists used against him in Religulous as HE is using arguing against vaccinations.
The reasoning is such:
“The science is not settled, there are many competing thories, so we should have a debate about the facts.”
The big take-away from Big Thinks article?
“Their (scientists) work is not the revelation of eternal truth, but the pursuit of methods for diminishing ignorance.”
