Your life isn’t measured by what you know but by how you think
How do you react when you are faced with a problem you’ve never encountered before
Think for yourself, don’t tell others decide for you what is true
As the area of our knowledge grows so too does the perimeter of your ignorance
The scientific method is made to stop us from thinking true things are false and that false things are true
Science is deducing what must be true from what you know to be true
Pluto was discovered to explain a gravity pull causing Neptune to not obey Newtonian laws, it was discovered the measurements were off and Pluto was actually much smaller than we thought. Such is the scientific frontier.
