On: Opt Out of Cynicism

[darkerside]

Hmm. It seems quite obvious that, to the common person in that time period, science would have seemed like an irrelevant waste of time. Some cursory googling doesn't reveal much either way.

I'm not super confident in my speculation, it just seems the most likely to me. What makes you so confident?

What makes me so confident?

I studied history of science and philosophy of science seriously. Like reading books and papers across several classes. Old school.
