“Who questions much,shall learn much,and remember much.”—Francis Bacon (1561~1626)
It seems obvious now how we acquire knowledge and understanding.To start with,you need questions.Then,to find answers,you observe the world around you and study the facts.After that you consider possible answers and test each to find the right ones.Although today we are more accustomed to typing a few key words into a search engine and waiting for the Internet to spit the answers out for us,modern scientists and thinkers are still solving the world’s problems with this type of analysis—luckily for us.
However,in the 17th century when Francis Bacon suggested that this type of thinking was the way to gain knowledge,he was going against the views of the day.At that time,people believed more in religion than in facts,and people like Galileo Galilei,who proved scientific ideas such as “the Earth is not the centre of the universe”,were often punished by the church with no one coming to their defence.The church and many people tended to ignore the facts and were unwilling to challenge what they had always comfortably believed.They preferred to make assumptions about the world based on the experience of others.In fact,when Galilei proved that the Earth was not the centre of the universe,instead of believing him,people chose to believe ancient views put forward by the great philosopher Aristotle (384~322 BC).
