Absolutely great article. Hit on many great points. I am often shocked how people consider science to be 100% true without recognizing that our understanding is constantly evolving and scientific facts have continually been proven wrong and corrected as more evidence and understanding is gained.

I'm not saying that we cannot trust science - not by a long shot. Instead, I'm saying we need to be more critical of findings.

It seems more and more scientific discovery is being fueled by funding resources with preconceived ideas/opinions that lead to "expected" results regardless of the real scientific findings. In other words, you want next year's research funded, you better have findings that conform to the funding resource's goals or you'll be out of work next year. Also, more and more, scientific research seems to be a popularity or shock contest with the goal to be published in a journal regardless if you actually discovered or proved anything.

I like what John Arnold's foundation is doing.
