So, while our world burns, we've decided something most of us took as common knowledge isn't right. I'm kind of realizing that science, for my generation, has been kind of static for a long time. Certainly things like this. So when science does what it does, discover new information and changing its mind, we are reminded that we really don't know much at all and never did.
I don't believe that's a good thing for science's cred.
