The problem with "common sense" is that it relies on our fallible brains. This opinion piece highlights the problem. What if everyone accepted the findings of science instead of using "common sense?"
No ‘common’ left in our common sense
Human knowledge has progressed exponentially since the dawn of modern science. It is no longer reasonable to accept claims without sufficient objective evidence. The harm from religion, alternatives to medicine, conservatism, and all other false beliefs will be exposed on this blog by reporting the findings of science. This blog will also reinforce what should be the basics of education: History, Civics, Financial Literacy, Media Literacy, and Critical/Science Based Thinking.
