No, but assertions which contradict science generally tend to be made by stupid people.

Einstein was stupid?

Yes, he may be an extreme example, but science doesn't go anywhere without people who constantly question the status-quo by making claims to the contrary.

Contradicting science does not make one stupid.

Perhaps I phrased that statement poorly. How's this:

"Those who discount the validity of the scientific process are generally stupid."

Better?

Much better, yes. I can agree with that.

How is this ?

"Everyone who feels too self-asured and too self-content with some 'human made realizations' can be called stupid" ?

To believe science (thinking) is the onliest truth is stupid.
To believe in musing without verification is stupid.
And to believe that the mix will cover all the truth, is stupid too :grin:

There are things besides our knowability
