(Post 92) Question Everything!

Don't follow blindly...Question everything!

Laws, facts, theories, hypothesis, assumptions and opinions.

Here are some points from Dr Siff that can help when questioning...

A rule is not a law

A theory is not a law

A judicial law is not a scientific law

A position statement is not a law

Scientific laws can not be broken; judicial laws can

An hypothesis is not a law; an hypothesis is a theory

A theory has to be proved repeatedly to become a law

Most rules and laws are relative to some point of reference

Beware of absolutes; almost everything is relative

Rules change; scientific laws do not; judicial laws do

Rules can be and usually are broken

Some rules should be broken

Look for undiscovered laws

Think before you rule

Question all rules.
