Human beings are very strange creatures: many are attracted to what the majority of the population accepts as "knowledge" and follow this path for many years without asking that's why it is said to be so. Others prefer to complete their "knowledge" by referring to an entity believed to be superior to all living beings on Earth. Then there are those who are open-minded, who stand out from the crowd, whose curiosity takes the initiative to discover the secrets of the world. What the question implies is that sometimes a statement is considered a fact, a principle, or the truth, entering into our classification of “knowledge.” On the other hand, this could also be “discarded” in the future, therefore left aside, because something else has replaced it, or we are simply ignoring it to follow another path. In every century, men have believed they have finally understood the universe. , and in every century they have been proven wrong. If this pattern continues to follow, then we can say that our modern “knowledge” is wrong. Socrates was proclaimed by the oracle of Delphi to be the wisest man in Greece, and to this he replied: "If I am the wisest, it is because I alone know that I know nothing." he was under the impression that he possessed a great deal of "knowledge". When people thought the Earth was flat, they were wrong. When they thought the Earth was spherical, this theory was again discarded. Information and knowledge are constantly evolving, false information leads to a more accurate theory, which may then prove to be false again. However, the problem that arises here is that “right” and “wrong” are not… of paper……ledge” which was accepted as accurate, and then discarded in favor of a new theory, based on new information that explained the phenomena in a completely new and more accurate way. However, the previous solution was almost a piece in an ever-constructing edifice of knowledge. Even when a block was completely removed and ignored due to its instability, it often motivated new lines of inquiry to replace it once again. Humans have the ability to grow by learning certain reasoning by explaining something, judging it, and seeing its flaws. The investigation diverges towards potentially more accurate answers; even if the previous one was slightly right, in turn a new analysis was derived from it in an even more direct way.
