I think we live in a world where admitting mistakes is often perceived as weakness. But I'm sure it's quite the opposite. Science is built on error correction and the constant refinement of our worldview. Of course, like anyone else, I make mistakes sometimes. Then I feel ashamed, and my OCD starts to torment me, demanding I fix everything. So today, a critical analysis of Alexander Panchin through the eyes of... Alexander Panchin. Let's analyze my mistakes together!

Have you ever admitted your own mistakes? Share your mistakes and stories of how your views changed in the comments. Maybe even thanks to popular science lectures, books, and videos?
