Once you realize that scientific belief is based a social clicks, accepted understanding and dare I say, faith, then you realize science has the same limitations as religion; the human mind.


This is true for members of the lay public if they never participate in science, but you can in principle (and some people actually do in practice) work to acquire the skills to evaluate the validity of experiments and the scientific reasoning necessary to draw conclusions from observations, and yes, even replicate findings in experimental fields, etc.

In theory you are correct. But only in theory. In reality only about 1% of the population have the skills and aptitude to observe and confirm many concepts in science and mostly in applied fields. When you enter the world of theoretical science, 99% of us can only accept what is being said by scientist on faith, nothing more.
