I think you're overcompensating for something.

Well Serbia does have a fair amount of people who think they are more entitled than everyone else.

This is what's known as Standpoint Theory. People are just not capable of pure objectivity. Perhaps it exists in the physical world, but once it passes through us it is/can be skewed in some way. Have you ever had an argument with someone about whether or not an item is blue, or more purple? Bias starts in the very makeup of the organs that detect the world in front of us; our eyes, ears, nose, mouth, and definitely our brain.

The way we are approaching this conversation is from a limited, eurocentric approach. There are more factors in science to be concerned with than the pure experiment on the far end of the information. Details of science are constantly in a state of flux, of argument, and science (like anything) cannot be "proven": by their very natures, hypotheses and theories are suggestions about the world's workings that can only be supported by evidence, not "proven".

You should always question what is given to you as "fact", because your facts are always filtered through a myriad of biases, including your own biases to see them in a particular light.

TBH you should have been Headmistress, this is the only important and relevant post in this entire thread.

Rest is wank.

it's easier to respond to wank that's why it was just skipped over honestly.
