Evolutionary biology adopting religious traits

[robvalue]

Whhh...whhhh... What?

People don't have time to become an expert in every single subject, so a certain amount of trust in qualified people is required, sure. But you can go and investigate anything you like, to check for yourself whether it is true or believable.

And if established claims are wrong, people get famous for showing they are wrong.

I agree, it would be good if everyone understood all our scientific knowledge, but I'm afraid that's impossible. Even the brightest wouldn't have time to study every angle of every subject.

Ordinary people know science works because science is powering all their shit. There's no science conspiracy, if that's what you're implying?

Or that we should discard proven results in case other people won't understand them? The work is usually available for review, it's not a big secret.

I'm not sure if you're trying to compare religious and scientific faith... Please don't do that

I'm eating cake in my pyjamas. What am I learning about science, really? It's still christmas until we run out of cakes and sweets.
