Iffy Scientific Validity (thank you, Boney M.!)
There are so many supposedly scientific claims that are simply not statements of science. How can we tell what to believe? I included some tips in here for how to determine if a claim made in the name of science is a credible claim or not. Just because someone uses a laboratory doesn’t mean that they have any training or expertise. I hope this helps! Thank you, Boney M., for your great music! May God bless you, protect you, and give you peace!

Words by me: On this journey that we are on, it’s truth we want. Yeah, we’ve wept, when we’ve encountered lying. On this journey that we are on, who can we trust? Yeah, we’ve wept, when we’ve encountered lying. Many claims have iffy scientific validity in fields of enquiry. Now how can we know what’s credible in this strange time? Many claims have iffy scientific validity in fields of enquiry. Now how can we know what’s credible in this strange time? Legitimate scientists consider questions, formulate specific hypotheses, observe, test, analyze, refine, draw conclusions. Reputable researchers use peer review to publish their discoveries. Cooperation’s an important part of accountability. On this journey that we are on, it’s truth we want. Yeah, we’ve wept, when we’ve encountered lying.
