The Power of Science, Research, & Scientific Studies
Science can do good and, sometimes, can do more harm — my experience.
Science almost eradicated infection and increased life expectancy in many parts of the world.
I had a summer guest, a retired physician, who discussed how sanitation was the main reason for cutting down germs significantly and saving many lives. "It does until now. A clean body, environment, and other treatments keep people healthy," she stressed.
That's it.
The power of the almighty science; something must be proven in a test of time to make sense or to be taken seriously in 2023. This is why scientific studies prove science is right or a misconception from fake news.
Furthermore, some data in researched studies can change when they involve many internal and external variables in the experiment. For example, humans, etc.
In my house, everyone believes in what you can prove most of the time. Often, our home turns into a laboratory or the Supreme Court.
For example:
When my son was about three, he asked me to prove that my dark blue pump was blue, not black. And I did.
