"That's funny, I met Matt Damon one time and his only response was say hi to my mother. Weird."

Great, your first BSOD on the tablet.

"Windows had to shut down unexpectedly. Invalid array index: 'Extremely awesome' is outside the range of [1 to Awesome]"

"No, I wanted boobies! Fuck, another butthole? Can you people read? Shit."

A lot of celebrity AMAs can be summed up like so:

Q: What are your thoughts on ________ and how do you plan on moving forward with addressing your concerns on ________?

A: Watch my new movie!

a scientist wrote it

A scientist may have written it, but a great many scientists back the idea and the science.

And trusting it because it's in a science book is not wrong. What would be wrong is if, later on down the road, contradictory evidence came to light and science changed because of that new evidence, yet you still stubbornly clung to the now-proven incorrect science that you were presented with before.

Large, solid bodies of science rarely get turned on their heads overnight (it's usually more evolutionary and tends to get clearer and more refined over time as we discover more), but if and when it does, there is no shame in changing your mind to follow suit.

I myself have faith in those scientists even though they could be bald face lying to me the same a priest would.

It would take a conspiracy of great proportion if the scientific community banded together and all agreed to lie about a particular something.

It would be more simple to see through a single scientist's lies than it would a priest's.
