    "Believing in science" - what does that mean?

    Yes, believing in science to me is believing in the scientific method. But alas, I am not a scientist. I need to rely on scientists to relate their findings. My "science" ends with my observable universe, what my 5 senses can experience. Scientists use instruments to exentuate their senses...

    Can people be "smarter" than their ancestors, or at least more advanced than their predecessors?

    We have always stood on the shoulders of our ancestors....either running with what they started or rejecting it and running the other way.

    No, I am saying I have the same level of interest listening to them without supporting data. I usually sit and watch them dig their own ditch as they supply it. I am not a scientist, immunologist, medical.doctor or astrophysicist...when it comes to questions for those trades I tend to leave it...

    Who created God?

    When you say humanity it doesn't sound like you are referring to one individual or community but all of us. You say it as if we (humanity) has reached rock bottom and learned some lesson and then went back to rock bottom, repeatedly and risen again....numerous times?

    The Bread of Shame

    Would love to hear more. I had not heard the phrase, but sort of understand the feeling. Would it fall along with imposter syndrome notion of today? Do kabbalists.attribute more to it than non kaballists and if so how?

    Robert F Kennedy Jr

    Not to say there.isnt some concern but from leeches on there hasn't been one medical intervention without side affects. While we should never stop testing and research imo, some of the anecdotal evidence needs to be evaluated for correlation, causation or coincidence...you know shark attacks...
