Questioning can be a slippery slope these days, so please consider the nuance between questions and doubts or distrust.
I do not suggest we abandon all our knowledge – for example 2+2=4. It does not equal 5. There’s also a world of difference between trusting the majority of experts from around the world and believing one outlier study. Now that one study could very well be correct, but until more evidence comes to light, we shouldn’t rush to assume it’s true. .
Healthy questioning is a part of the scientific method. It’s part of the peer review process, part of research, and so on.
Questioning our own beliefs from time to time is also healthy. Through life’s experiences our opinions and beliefs evolve.
