I think 'modern science' generally breeds arrogance and ignorance. Everything is benchmarked upon findings that are generally less than 400 years old. I'm not saying that modern science is wrong but it seems to me that anything that doesn't conform or that can't be proved by it's standards is dismissed.

Look at chinese medicine. Practiced for over 2000 years and yet dismissed by scholars of a modern medicine that has only been practiced for a quarter of that time. I think our understanding of the World goes backwards as modern science makes more & more breakthroughs.

I'm not very good at articulating arguments so please don't villify me if you don't agree because I won't fight back! It's just my opinion.
