I see a lot of evidence that "thinking right" is astoundingly hard.

But I don't see very many statements from real humans of any field, background, or level of intelligence/education that acknowledge the enormity of the challenge.

I'm not sure it's "possible", but I think we're profoundly suffering for the lack of an open-ended, recursive knowledge-production process more efficient than what we've left up to the emergent behavior of a chaotic system.

The Scientific Method can't be something we just learn and file away. Method means it is being applied, we constantly need to practice and study in its application. It is a way of being, not a fact.
