Hi
I am new to this website so please excuse me if I diverge from the rules of discourse.
I think there is an inaccurate assumption in this text. Even though scientific ideas become official through publishing in scientific journals it is not the only platform to discuss science. I will suggest here other mechanisms to root out errors and discuss scientific ideas based on my experience as a researcher in Earth Sciences. I know other fields use different methods though, to my understanding, these methods are fundamentally similar.
Since Earth Sciences suffer from chronicle lack of evidence Earth scientists are bound to come up with contradicting ideas. Most of these ideas are rooted out in
Interestingly, a similar discussion is made in the Jewish texts. The origin of both Jewish and Christian versions is the verse "You shall not take vengeance or bear a grudge against any of your people, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself: I am the Lord." [Leviticus 19:18] In this verse, and further in Jewish texts discussing it, the emphasis is on not harming rather than acting with love. The love is only used as a motivation for not hurting (and not, for example, fellatio). This is the basis of the Hebrew version of the golden rule, which roughly translates to "don't do to your friend what you don't want to be done to you". This is the version taught in nurseries in Israel and (I believe) other Jewish communities.
