They don't know better, they try to understand better. Why not?
- CathedralBorrow 7y agoWhen someone talks about how "scientists fall for the same simplistic patterns of thinking that the men on the street fall for every day", while explaining how "in fact reality is much more complex than that", does it feel like they're humbly trying to better understand the world? To me it sounds like someone who clearly has a deeper understanding of the topic than those scientists. And I love that.
- coldtea 7y agoDoes the comment strike you as "understanding" or even "trying to understand"? It paints a blanket picture, with no qualifications (read a few articles at best), and belittles what the scientists in general "do".
- Scriptor 7y agoAlso the point the commenter thinks they're original in making is the main point of the actual article.
