You’ll lower your chances by a big degree.

You'll lower your chances not a bit. Death is certain whether you get first aid or not. It's merely a matter of when. Science never saved any life.

And that's not saying that applying the scientific method is bad or undesirable or shouldn't be done. Science and medicine are very good. What must be kept in mind, though is science is a means, not an end. It is not something to be worshipped.

You'll not find me arguing with that, LOL! I hope you find peace, wherever it is that you're looking for...

Wow. Profound, uh, observation. However, I think that extending average life expectency from the late 20s to the late 70s counts for something. Again, if you don't like modernity, you're more than welcome to retreat to a cave where you can live off berries and whatever offal you manage to scavenge.
