Haha...ok....you win....them scientist know all things...
No scientist would ever say they know all things. From what I can tell, you have decided to be willfully ignorant about the knowledge we have learned about the universe we live within. That is something very sad to me.

That is a bad analogy. Our ability to learn and understand the universe has given us great things. Medical science has allowed people to live longer than before, for example. We are not ants trying to figure out a fig tree. We are reasoning creatures that have developed methods to understand.

That is not what you are saying though. Your point seems to be that people should not try, as they should just believe. That is wrong to me.

People buy plenty. It is in the mobs nature to be irrational. However, I am not concerned with what lay people understand about science and am, instead, interested in what the experts have to say.

Experts back up their findings with evidence. Experts attempt to disprove their own ideas in order to understand more. Yes, I trust experts when the data supports their findings.

A good book for you to read would be "Why People Believe Weird Things" by Michael Shermer. It would answer many of your questions. Being a sceptic doesn't mean believe anything, but it's a process of 'learning how to learn.' It's becoming aware of our own biases and checking them against the facts, and updating our beliefs to reflect the evidence. I'm a sceptic not because I don't want to believe, but because I want to know.
