Arguments for questioning, does questioning need evidence

Galileo boldly questioned Aristotle's doctrine and proved through experiments that his views were not correct and that his own ideas were correct.

Aristotle of Greece believed that objects fall differently and slowly. The speed at which it falls is directly proportional to its weight, and the heavier the object, the faster it falls. For example, an object weighing 10 kg will fall 10 times faster than an object weighing 1 kg.

For more than 1,700 years, people have regarded this doctrine, which is contrary to the laws of nature, as an unquestionable truth. The young Galileo, reasoning from his own experience, boldly questioned the doctrine of Aristotle. After much deliberation, he decided to do a hands-on experiment.

He chose the Leaning Tower of Pisa as his testing ground.

On this day, he brought two iron balls of the same size but different weights, one weighing 100 pounds and being solid; The other weighs 1 pound and is hollow. Galileo stands on top of the Leaning Tower of Pisa and looks down. The tower was full of people who came to **, and everyone was talking.

Someone sarcastically said, "This young man must have a sick nerve!" Aristotle's theory can't be wrong!

The experiment began, and Galileo took an iron ball in each hand and shouted: "You see, people below, the iron ball is about to fall. With that, he opened both hands at the same time.

It was seen that two iron balls fell parallel to each other, almost simultaneously on the ground. Everyone was dumbfounded.

Galangelio's experiments revealed the secret of the motion of the falling body and overthrew Aristotle's doctrine. This experiment is of epoch-making significance in the history of physics.

1. (1) Fresnel, as an obscure little person in the scientific community, dared to challenge authority, and finally won the award issued by the French Academy of Sciences. His award is of course based on his achievements, but without the scientific spirit of questioning, even if he makes a discovery, he may be obliterated in the countryside and lose his name for a lifetime.

2) From this point of view, only with the courage to question can we make great achievements in our own research fields and contribute to the progress of human society.

2. Bruno, in defiance of the Church's prohibition, boldly exposed the ignorance of religion. He organically combined the advanced natural sciences and philosophy of the time, and insisted on supplementing and developing the Copernican theory.

Legal analysis: not to need, you need to come up with substantive evidence, then it depends on who questions you, if the police question you, you have to prove yourself with evidence, if it is an ordinary person, as for him to come up with evidence.

Legal basis: Chang Heyuan Civil Procedure Law of the People's Republic of China

Article 64: The parties to paragraph 1 have the responsibility to provide evidence for their own claims.

Article 64: Evidence that the parties and their litigants are unable to collect on their own for objective reasons, or evidence that the people's court finds necessary for the trial of the case, shall be investigated and collected by the people's courts.

At first, we rushed to explain in the face of skepticism, for fear that we would not be able to prove ourselves, or that we would lose the so-called trust. Later, we were a little silent in the face of doubts, thinking that maybe it had formed a definitive conclusion and did not need to be explained, but we still lingered in our hearts and could not let go. In the end, we accepted the questioning, not in a hurry or irritation, the more frustrated we became, the more courageous we became, and the more we drowned out the doubt, and saw its essence and intention clearly.

After going through this process, we can directly open our hearts and minds to accept and embrace those voices and eyes that are skeptical, because then you can see your problems and focus on your choices.

In fact, questioning is a wake-up call, a weapon for introspection, and a reason for witnessing. Without questioning, you will cling to yourself, and you cannot be your own spectator to see the problem.

Doubts in life are common, staged, and multi-perspective, you can refer to, look back, or ignore them, but what matters is whether our persistence can withstand questioning.

If we haven't questioned ourselves and eliminated those problems, of course we won't face them calmly. On the contrary, they will be in a hurry, go wrong, and deviate.

Only those who face their own thoughts and self-examination countless times will have enough firmness, self-confidence, and purpose in their hearts. I won't panic because of doubts.

So questioning isn't scary, it's scary that you're not willing to question yourself honestly. Rather evade, rather deceive.

I would say that questioning will not make you feel less confident, but it will make you better. It is important that we face up to what it is about.
