You shouldn’t blindly believe anything, but science, faulty as it is, does entail a higher degree of credibility than, say, anecdotal evidence.

- wtetzner 6y agoPerhaps, but that's not a very high bar. If you personally experience something that disagrees with what a research paper says, I don't think it's reasonable to just assume you must have been mistaken. That doesn't mean I think you should believe your senses either. It means it's worth looking into it further (if you care, at least).
