Paradigm Shift Against #Agism
Bold hypotheses are the mighty engine of scientific evolution
I’ve been really enjoying the excellent science videos on YouTube! Relativistic physics, quantum mechanics, archaeology, astrophysics, geology, biochemistry, fantasy archaeology, ufology, cognitive psychology, etc.
For those who’ve never heard of the existence of “fantastic archaeology,” I suggest searching online for “Graham Hancock,” an extremely creative English journalist who delights us with advanced and ancient civilizations, predating Atlantis itself. With a fantastic. mighty imagination, Graham raves about far-fetched hypotheses without any basis in the real science of archeology.
Undeniably, youtube has several high-level science channels, which even estimulate us to create our own proposals to several challenges faced by most advanced theories.
Is quantum mechanics wrong or incomplete, as Einstein uttered when had reluctantly to accept it after its undeniable practical results.
For ordinary people it seems much easier to think the genius is right and not the theory, right?
Wrong: you can’t accept anyone’s opinion on empirical science questions, not even those of the greatest geniuses, without objective, rational proof.
