my very very very first hint of the Cathedral was in 6th grade or middle school, when the teacher mocked phrenology as unscientific.
I asked how so?
I was told "it's not science".
I asked how it was disproven.
I was told "it doesn't need to be; it's obviously wrong"

2/ This was in the same class where the scientific method was discussed, and how all knowledge is contingent, and we know things only by testing them. The teacher said that. ...and then also said that dumb old-fashioned theories were wrong and didn't need to be disproven.
