ah finally something I as a novice scientist can talk about
the scientific method is indeed the best way to look at something sadly since the privation of science it is very bad for scientist to say they are wrong
it used to be hard but now it is impossible to say about a popular theory that they are wrong
for example the big-bang theory
many respected and renowned scientists have openly said that the big-bang theory is an absolute truth(rule number 1 in science: NOTHING is ever considered true truth until proving otherwise(which is until you have seen and tested everything!) there is only a high possibility of something being truth) there is a dutch profesor who has tried to post articles and pictures of clusters of stars in science magazines that contradict the big bang
he has never been published and everyone says that he is wrong and that the pictures are a result of fault equipment,
just because there is so much money in it, scientist who make mistakes lose heaps of money and that can't happen nowadays anymore
now I don't say he is wrong or right but is just say prove it
prove he is wrong, if they are so sure of it THAT is scientific method
I may be zealous about this, butt goddammit scientific method is one of the factors that made science big and fast
if we lose this we come back to a halt
and I am sure that the EB team agrees with me seeing their huge need for unmistakable evidence and thats a good thing so we now that at least that is true
