Why are they called hindrances to scientific inquiry?

still mystifying because we have yet to discover the truth behind them.Dogmatism is a tendency to
state something as the truth, incontrovertible, withoutevidence or listening to opinions of others.

TraditionTradition is another good hindrance to speak about. It comes about in

Anthropologicalstudies quite often. Anthropology studies human beings and cultures. It will examine
theeffects that other cultures can have on one culture that has been isolated. A goodexample can be
found in certain African villages. There are some cultures that believeailments such as headaches are
