Wow! This is just like audio scientology where listening to the gear is offensive and irrelevant!

Have you heard of many 'evolution' theories of our biology? And later they say it isn't true, and changed to some other theory? They are no different than us, when we make simple inferences. We all do it, including scientists. They call it something different, called 'hypothesis.' and when a plain person does it, it's labeled as ignorance or assumption? Reality is that ordinary people were all scientists back then when we discover new things from trial and error. Science is just more systematized due to more data gathered over time, that is all. We are not that much less ignorant.

It goes both ways in both extremes like politics. Not questioning audiofoolry or scienfoolry.

Science and art are equally valid. But I don't think you can judge one with the other.

Art is way to show us the infinite while science can only deal with the finite most scientists stay as far away from infinity as possible as if it scares the crap out of them. The thing is though this isan infinite universe. Eventually everyone will have to get this. Another thing that i wanted tomention. Quantum computers are analog machines (qbit can be 1 or 0 oranything in between) and use adc's and dac's to interface with the actual qbits.

Don't scientists study the large (Universe) to also help them understand the small (atoms)? and study the 'small' in order to also understand the large?

Yeah they study, but do not have definitive answers like an avg person about anything. Their findings change as they obtain more data.

Newton thought laws of physics was unraveled and then later came quantum mechanics. When we dig further there are more mysteries.

Earlier times were called philiosphy, and then physics and others diciplines came about as people realize there are many facets to the world and we can only see them in facets like large puzzle. We are all limited in capacity so we can only understand shallowly in facets.

For example, quantum mechanics will not give us answers on COVID.

It was from a book on Quantum Physics I read how sometimes the study of an opposite can help in understanding the behaviour of something else. Newton was very gifted and into a lot of things. Central Asia was once 500 years ahead of Europe in thinking and understanding our world, they mapped many stars and planets. That's why many stars have Arabic names.
