Should DNA Pioneer Been Stripped of his Nobel Prize?

This is open to the members of the Board. Q: “Should this man have been stripped of his accolades because of his scientific opinion, regardless of the controversy?” What about his opinions? Are they scientifically supported?

'science' today is who's ass you are kissing. If what he said was wrong, show the evidence. But it has nothing to do with his work on discovering the human genome.

WIlliam Shockley, winner of the 1956 Nobel Prize, was never stripped either in spite of racial comments on his part on Buckley's program among others.

If you want to be fair, the Nobel committee should strip Shockley's Nobel Prize posthumously.
