"Necessity is the mother of invention, not education or what passes for it."

No doubt that as Thomas Edison said genius is 99% perspiration and 1% inspiration, but science is a gradual process in which innovation is integrating and refining the works of those who came before. As Isaac Newton said; Scientific advancement is "standing on the shoulders of giants".

So, again, would you consider open heart surgery performed by an auto mechanic or fly in an aircraft designed and built by high school drop outs?

Deny it all you want to, but "modern science" is a system and a racket, no creative thought processes required. To get somewhere in the good old boy network, you will toe the line. Good examples are global warming , evolution, and the fight that Australian gastroenterologists Robin Warren and Barry Marshall endured with conventional science over helicobacter pylori bacteria and Peptic Ulcer Disease
