Does this?
Proverbs 3:5

Trust in the Lord with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding
In other words, don't think for yourself, just take god's word for it. How is this seeking truth? OR is does definition of seeking truth mean simply asking god for the answer?

Well, a possible response might go like this:

Proverbs 3 isn't saying "don't ever try to understand things", or "never make judgments/evaluations based on your own understanding". It's talking about what you should fundamentally orient your life around--more like, "Don't think that you've got everything figured out already. Be willing to be changed/lead by the Lord".
“The truth of our faith becomes a matter of ridicule among the infidels if any Catholic, not gifted with the necessary scientific learning, presents as dogma what scientific scrutiny shows to be false.”
