I was glad she inserted the rare admission that historically scientific fact is often overturned by newer evidence, methodology and/or theory. These are becoming less frequent either by resistance from establishment or ever increasing knowledge base. The internet and social media have reshaped us fatter than any single event in history, for better or worse. But science can now share ideas and findings as they're happening. Hopefully scientists are beginning to see this as opportunity rather than the old model of guarding info as a commodity to be hidden away until it can be revealed in effort to bring fame to the individual. Isn't that ironic as most science is funded by the taxes of all of us. I'll get it my soapbox but end by saying how exciting this new age of research is even for us laypeople.

@@davidclaytonfreeman3306 I'm going to push back on the idea that scientists horde information. There may be some percentage of them that do, and possibly for some good reasons besides just self glory, but scientists, in general, seem quite willing to sharing information. Plus, at some point, their work needs to be peer reviewed if their findings are going to be taken seriously and the fame you claim they seek can be showered on them.

The modern SJW resides primarily---sometimes exclusively---within that limbic system. This explains why democrats increasingly despise free speech, facts, and reason.

I'm waiting for the day a scientist can explain to me how for instance the pancreas developed, other than the go to "billions of years" of evolution. No my point is that something with specific purpose does not accidentally mutate into existence. How does the body know it needs to monitor blood sugar? How does the pancreas generate insulin which can reduce it? How did the electrical connections fall into place for the brain to trigger it? Billions of years just can't be the answer.
