On Science Through The Ages

As I was sitting in Science the other day, reading a book under my desk (but I might as well have had it out in the open — my Science teacher thinks P stands for Potassium, so I doubt if she is even conscious of the world around her), a thought occurred to me. Who are we to preach about science? I bet the Ancient Romans thought their methods were right, too. We are probably wrong! Why don't we just accept this and not study science in school? It's not going to serve us well later in life anyway.

I'm sure this revelation had nothing to do with my utter boredom with the subject.
