    Skepticism is the literal precursor to the scientific method, and that’s where you’re stopping. There is no science at the skepticism step.

    You’re basically saying, “Gravity isn’t real because I don’t see proof.”

    A real scientist would drop an apple, a feather, a bowling ball, and verify it.

      Good, so we agree on something then. No skepticism = no science.

      Strawman. I didn’t say that.

      Yes, and some of the people in the “anti-science” community ARE doing that. And the rest of them are conducting a self-experiment on what happens if you ignore all the science…
