It was once a long held belief that human behavior was an instinctive byproduct of biology but in the twentieth century this proclaimed as factual notion had to give ground to the new understanding of behaviorism which holds that human behavior is a learned process instead of the once accepted biological instincts. Yet people were once so steadfast in this rudimentary belief prorogated by the scientific community that it lead to one group of human beings who happened to be more or less technologically advanced to classify other groups of human beings as being biologically less evolved and therefore less human than they who had acquired a little more knowledge. During that time many of the scientific community would factually state that people of color were inferior to whites and this absolute lead greatly to the now human phenomenon of racism that is very much alive and is doing quite well even in this the twenty-first century.
So how say you that a little bit of human knowledge does not necessarily equate to a little bit of human enlightenment but has historically opened the floodgates to a vast amount of human ignorance? The scientific community once flatly stated that the earth is flat and any other notion was routinely considered as being absurd if not altogether obscene, however a bit more exploration and investigation disproved this once held factual theory as being a total falsehood even though other cultures had long before surmised that the earth was anything but flat but this belief held by the less viewed was considered as being unworthy of digestion because the sources of this viewpoint came from a class of people who behaves, so it was commonly professed, on biological instincts and therefore have no valid grounds for statesman or stateswoman-ship in the learned professions of science and research.
The scientists say that the Moon was formed by a gigantic collision of a stray planet with the Earth and if this is true did many other stray planets also collide with each of the other planets in this solar system that also have moon's now orbiting them? This brings us back to the question of what a planet is because the scientists refers to this large object as being a planet but this large object could not have been a planet because it did not adhere to the major criteria that defines a celestial body as being a planet and that is that it must revolve around a Star and not freelance haphazardly through space as theoretically this one did. Now then, there is nothing wrong with flinging out theories and hypothesis because this is all apart of the inquisitive and the learning process but where the folly lies is in presenting these investigative assumptions as absolutes and indisputable facts because there are far too many other alternative explanations and influencing forces yet to be discovered much less comprehended for beginners to be so sure of self.
