“Science is more than a body of knowledge. It is a way of thinking; a way of skeptically interrogating the universe with a fine understanding of human fallibility. If we are not able to ask skeptical questions, to interrogate those who tell us that something is true, to be skeptical of those in authority, then, we are up for grabs for the next charlatan (political or religious) who comes rambling along.” -- Carl Sagan First thing that comes to mind. The Demon Haunted World changed my life but it seems like the one thing that got wrong isn't that external forces are a threat to "making progress via the scientific method to determine what is true" but science has instead been weaponized from within to push an agenda. This is much more terrifying to me.
