Changing Knowledge

"That which is accepted as knowledge today is sometimes discarded tomorrow."



This happens many times in our life, especially in our youth. When we are young we learn many new ideas, perspectives and theories, and we realize that "our way" wasn't correct and I would say this happens mostly in our younger years when are growing and coming out of that comfortable shell and into the world, becoming exposed to many other ideas and perspectives. We start seeing things though a different perspective and these lenses help us realize many new things. We can be living today believing that the world is round due to facts and science but yesterday we could have believed that the earth was flat and that was knowledge to us yesterday but today its discarded for another fact. Hence, "that which is accepted as knowledge today is sometimes discarded tomorrow" happens many times in our lives as long as we are open minded and accepting.
