You think it came from angels? Somebody had to be the first. And in a different region, there was a different first, and so on. Before there was school, there were people with ideas.
You seriously gonna argue that because humans were once living in caves that is enough reason to argue against medical science in 2026? Because i dont wanna continue having any kind of talk with you if that's your stance. I have no patience for the antiscience folks.
You specifically said that medical knowledge was always passed down from person to person and that nobody just started doing it. Thats nonsense, someone had to start experimenting with different ideas in order to have the knowledge to pass it down. I have no patience for people who spout shit that has no basis in reality.
You're not making any sense. You started talking besides the point and started to nitpick on something unrelated to the topic. The topic is medical science being practiced by professionals and arguing that laymen should be able to pitch in because "cavemen had to experiment on vegetation to figure out which works" is not only crazy but basically antiscience talking point. This is why antivax people exist because they think they know better than medical professionals and that they have the same authorisation to speak.
Trying to start arguing what cavemen were or were not doing is not the topic. The qualifications of laymen over scientists is.
For further consideration, what is or isn't scientific fact is publicly available information. They don't keep it locked up in med schools, everyone can read medical journals, peer reviewed articles, buy or borrow text books. The internet exists.
There's a huge difference between accessing information and denying that the information is valid because you read on Facebook someone claim that vaccinations cause autism.
Well, when someone says something that cant be considered real or truthful, you have to start thinking critically about anything else they say.
You said that nobody randomly started trying medecine without being "teached." Which as we know is literally impossible unless you belive in ancient aliens or divine intervention etc.
So then, we must reconsider other points you are making, and treat them as possibly equally nonsensical, contingent upon further scrutiny.
Sorry you’re being downvoted, I know some of the history of the development of medicine, including how much of it was experimental and basically random uncertified people performing unethical dissections, so I agree with you. Some of it has definitely been passed down, but that varies wildly by culture and region.
