See, this is exactly the sort of thing I have a problem with. Science is not just magic that works. People are learning science as though it were merely a true religion: passwords, attire, professions, and all.
The press has reports with things like “scientists attack creationist teachings”, but I’ve never seen “scientists attack common misconceptions about evolutionary theory”.
Press selectivity. Trust me, they do.
I’d add… speech, empathy… superior social skills to the list
I wasn’t aware that speech, empathy, and social skills were functions of the kidneys rather than the brain.
Isn’t this applying Bayesianism to the scientific method? If the scientific method is a good method of truth seeking, it should lead to useful applications. It has lead to useful applications, so our p: science is a good method of truth-seeking rises.
Science (unlike religion) has proved its myths
