"Important truths begin as outrageous, or at least uncomfortable, attacks upon the accepted wisdom of the time."

The quotation is about Important truths affecting the society at that time.
The society is guarded by rules and rules built by individuals,they are called
the elders,they get the right because of their experience,they act to what they see,
and they believe that its true,without sometimes analysing it otherwise,if "I can see it like the way it is,it must be true."Now if someone younger comes along to challenge their cherished beliefs citing that whats being followed by them for all those years is a mear fallacy and talks
about what is the truth, althought he might be perfectly right in stating so, seemlying is
said to assail the traditions and is castigated for the same.Truth does affect the elders no
matter how wrong they are or however important the truth may be.

To elucidate,I exemplify with what happened to two pristine men of science as we know them today.Galilio challenged the church citing that,"The earth moves around the sun, not the other way around",he was incriminated for this claim,just because he dared to challenge the church prelates who believed that earths the supreme power.
Huygen a fleging but diligent physict was rebuked by his contemporaries for this denial of the "Corpuscular Theory of Light" by the extremely eminent physict Sir Issac Newton. He was also chided for his claim of luminous ether in space,which he devised to support his wave theory of light.The scientists althought very clever themselves revered Newton to extent that
defying his principles would never cross their minds.How could they buy what a tyro was saying and they obviously took it as a personal affront to their research and credibility.

Now unlike then we know what the truth is and we have excepted it as we understood it,thanks to the intense research.The people at that time believed otherwise and therefore reacted negatively to something they did not understand.
This was something that happened centuries ago,therefore expecting the individuals to be open-minded to ideas seems ascinine.
Taking into consideration the world today before and after computerisation in almost all the fields.The field of Banking before computerisation, everthing was done manually, right from calculating the interest to analysing the balancesheets,typewriters ever
used to type letters,enters were made in a colossal book having entries of transactions from years together.All this changed once Computers came into the picture.The typewriters were replaced by PCs and printers,there was distributed database that
connected various offices together.But the older generation still sticks to the earlier means,they arent too comfortable to except that the computers are safer,neater and easier to use than doing everything manually.In this example the society was chary to except the truth rather than its downright castigation.

Every individual in the society believes in his traditions,faith,that the society inculcates into him and they are cherished to him no matter how chimerical they are.
If someone else contravenes his beliefs,his societies beliefs inadvertently abuses them, and the society at that time never takes it in a positive stride.
