That’s a good point. Evolution had an uphill battle early on before many scientists accepted it. Dissent does help in many areas. It’s allowed within evolution, but not against it. No dissent is allowed contradicting the entire theory. We have to teach it like it’s an observed fact, anyone disagreeing is mocked, and it’s blended into tons of topics with no evidence it happened. People just start saying something is an evolutionary X or Y happened over millions of years with no proof of this. That a theory with many articles of faith becomes the lens through which observed facts are reshaped is more like philosophy or religion. That it can’t be contradicted and its proponents rooted out all alternatives. This shows it’s built on group or political power, not the scientific method.
