I was homeschooling my son today. We were reading his science & reading book today. The book, "Nonfiction Reading Comprehension Science Grade 3" said, "Scientists learn things by asking questions."

This made me think. Over the past 3 years, we are constantly told to trust the science, but these people will not allow anyone to question the narrative. If "scientists learn things by asking questions" then they aren't scientists and/or they aren't learning anything. Science isn't science if you aren't allowed to question it and continue seeking the whole truth. Even in 3rd grade that is obvious.

Science has been corrupted in so many ways, but the biggest problem is that there are very few scientists who actually know how to formulate and ask a proper question. That skill has largely been beaten out of them by the time they reach college by the education industry. the questions most scientists are concerned with is how to get funding and how many variables to include so that some result shows up.

Precisely.

Scientists are asking the questions and have more specific context to know which questions have already been asked, and where to look for more.

Compounding the problem, scientists who do ask questions and come to anti-narrative conclusions find it very hard to get their results published.

impossible to get results published. Peer review has become more about maintaining the status quo than about checking studies for accuracy.
