Any “established fact” that can cause harm to you (if it turns out to be wrong) should be questioned. For example, it was an established fact that cholesterol causes heart attacks and that fat makes you fat. If you don’t question these “facts,” your health suffered.
Well then you didn't think it was an established fact and so are right to question it. You said 'question everything'. Literally everything would mean questioning whether the sky is actually blue from earth or whether humans do in fact have two legs, annoying stuff like that.
There’s a time and a place for all questions. The color of the sky and the number of legs you have are relevant to schizophrenics.
