Science is like the weather, which they also fantasize about. If you don’t like it, just wait. It will change. Another thing that is widely known, based on the experience of others, is that doctors will kill you of you give them the chance to exercise their widely varying opinions. You have to somehow manage to live long enough to learn both of these things on your own because no one is going to tell you for fear of being labeled illiterate by the barely literate.
What people will tell you is that scientists say this and doctors say that, simply because they assume that you are going to be impressed that someone is a doctor or scientist, while not telling you what their first held opinion was that caused them to listen to a particular group of doctors and scientists who were adherent to their own set of wildly varying scientific methods, because scientific methods are also like the weather, and ignore the others in order to support their opinions. Included in the conversation will be things like NHS, AMA, NAS, UN, NICE, etc. to make what they say sound official and beyond questioning.
The vast majority of these wannabe Einsteins are not capable of coming up with an original thought on their own so, they either wait for someone with alterior motives to suggest something like humans can control the weather or spend their entire lives seeking acclamation by proving someone else's unproved theory. They celebrate hysterically with each new discovery that can be remotely theorized to have something to do with a Big Bang that must have happened billions of years ago because no other known rational thought, they say, can explain the existence of the Universe. Rational thought is abandoned as they never stop to consider that the Jesuit Priest that first postulated the theory most certainly did not risk his existence by challenging the Pope, but what is much more likely is that he translated the book of Genesis into scientific terms so that he could hoodwink the scientific community into proving the Pope's postulations. A mystical metaphysical singularity that exceeds the boundaries of physical science is a pretty strong, ignored clue.
With each new discovery of ancient bones, they mob up and riot over who will get to be the first one to publish the journal, which is summed up with the words, "See? This animal must have evolved from this other animal". They never stop to think that the original thought for this theory was published by a known psychotic who sought to have his psychosis treated by pouring buckets of water over his head and, when his daughter got physically sick, insisted, against his wife's wishes, on killing her with the same treatment. This was a man who was so entranced by Karl Marx that he dedicated a book to him and he was encouraged by Marx because Marx understood that without religion, humans become much weaker and can be more easily controlled. There is a giant disconnect as these practioners of mythology refuse to consider that since everything in the Universe, living or not, is created from the same basic building block involving the exact same shared energy and non-energy and everything is similar to the next as a result. Just because humans physically resemble a rock proves nothing, but their wing sprouting fantasies are much better than whatever fantasies you are having, they insist.
In the meantime, actual science grinds to a halt for 100 years, while waiting for the next messiah, and the fact that all of these groups of people are made up of simple human beings who are mostly on the take and have their own survival instincts and psychosis to deal with never enters the conversation. If you have a rash, try something and your rash goes away, but they don't like what you took, they will be quick resort to the old fall back to tell you that it was all in your mind. The mind, they will say, as they try to control yours, can do mysterious things. Your rash is gone, but, according to them, you should have gone to a doctor because, whatever it was could have been something that ended up killing you. They will seldom be able to rationally tell you what that something might have been, but will usually blurt out the most terrible thing that comes to mind. Usually, if it so happened that you had whatever they suggest, you would have died with or without doctors raking in the dough.
At the end of the day, if the day is one of enough days, you will take note that you met less than a handful of good doctors and scientists of sound minds in all of your days, the term quack does not only apply to ducks, but it does solicit the term lawyer because that’s another term that’s supposed to impress you, and that you would have been much better off to try things for yourself because your life was always much better off and better protected while in your own hands.
