Trust in "science" is anti-scientific

What do you think of when you hear terms like "anti-scientific" or "science denier"?

Maybe you think about those terrible people who refuse to wear masks in a pandemic, or a tin-foil hat wearing "climate change skeptic", one of those awful people who refuses to acknowledge facts and endangers people in the process.

But is it fair to call people who question science "anti-scientific"?

Science, at it's very core, is based in skepticism. The core principles of reproducibility, falsifiability and peer review are based in the notion that any scientific finding may be incorrect.

Let's challenge the narrative.
