So you agree but you felt the way I wrote it was disdainful, and you thought I didn't choose a good example.

Perhaps I should have said something along the lines of 'modern scientific cultural norms are influenced by the European Enlightenment.'

I specifically didn't mention falsfiabilty and logical positivism etc as I wanted to keep the comment light and accessible.

I was suggesting they read more because it's generally a good idea to read more about things you're interested in.
