Questioning Scientific Titans

[ScepticOrganism]

At any point, any time.

I wonder though, don't you find it a bit "arrogant" when someone questions a theory that has been proven to be correct already? specifically the principle of buoyancy? Like imagine someone questioning the theory of evolution, I would lose it in a matter of seconds. I wouldn't even bare staying in the same room with that person, I would simply excuse myself from the conversation...

The best thing about science is it being falsifiable, so anyone, even a toddler with no actual scientific understanding can look at it and find flaws. Whether that flaw is valid or not is a different question altogether.

I totally agree!! That's why science will always be much "humbler" than religion ever will. I just find it arrogant when someone tries to disprove something that has already been proven to be perfectly applicable. I blame myself for not being armed with the right arguments at the time.

I think the key difference between Science and Religion is that science actively looks for mistakes, it constantly asks itself "What if I'm wrong?"

By contrast, religion is the complete opposite, it advocates faith (IE belief without evidence, aka gullibility) and uses affirmations to keep it's head firmly in the sand.

I perfectly agree! I guess I just went a bit too far this time.
