This philosophical piece argues that the public's trust in science is often misplaced due to significant issues within research practices. The author contends that fields like nutritional science, psychology, and even medical science are prone to flawed methodology, including mistaking correlation for causation and relying on non-replicable studies. A central concern is the "reproducibility crisis," highlighting that many research findings, from economics to biology, cannot be consistently replicated, undermining the idea of a reliable scientific method. The article suggests that knowledge presented as scientific truth may instead be temporary fictions that expire rather than being disproven. Ultimately, it advocates for a more critical perspective, urging readers to question the blanket statement "trust the science" and recognise the limitations and biases inherent in various scientific disciplines.https://philosophics.blog/2025/05/09/trust-the-science-they-said-its-reproducible-they-lied/
