Growing up in school we were taught that whatever we learned was fact, gospel handed down by the giant graduation cap in the sky. However, I feel growing up a lot of what I learned as "fact" became much more..oppinon or was just plain wrong.
So I ask:
What is something you learned in school that was later disproven?
Oooh I love this question actually.
"Brain cells don't get replenished".
Also
"The antikythera mechanism is almost certainly a hoax".
In both cases we're looking at 50-100 year old dogma that just went poof within a very short time.
I honestly suspect that the Younger Dryas Impact theory and an RNA basis for memory are going to move from fringe hypothesis to mainline accepted theories before I die.
