Peer-reviewed data in any field is not the offering of an established fact. A pool of peers with a similar base of data and shared experiences is not always a guarantee they will offer the complete truth on a subject, especially when the members of that peer group share the same source of limited information and preferences.  This applies across the board in science, medicine, and theology.

Be careful not to prematurely assume peer-reviewed information is absolute truth. Gravity was considered a heresy until it proved to be a reality. Germs were not within the understanding of medical professionals until their presence was discovered. A group of deceived theologians with a loud enough social megaphone can convince naïve believers their interpretation of truth is one we should blindly follow without a challenge.

Only after a subject has been reviewed by the counsel of the Spirit and under the interpretive lens of the Word, can something be fully trusted. You may be called a fool for assuming such a posture while waiting for the truth to finally emerge. But when the facts finally do come to light, you will no longer be considered a fool, but rather, someone who can be trusted because they waited for wisdom to speak.
