• What the collective never grasped: Science

    I think I nabbed this here:

    Science wasn't created because SOMEONE ELSE is
    fallible. Science wasn't created because SOMEONE
    ELSE has flaws. Science wasn't created because
    SOMEONE ELSE takes short cuts, goes with their
    gut feelings, is loaded with on a-priori assumption
    after another. No, science was created because YOU
    are fallible.

    You are.

    And unless and until you are capable of grasping
    this, of understanding that science isn't a fence to
    keep the wrong people out, it's a process designed
    to eliminate people altogether.

    "The human element."

    Piltdown Man was a mistake? Yes. But nowhere
    near as great a mistake as Darwin made when he
    became the face of naturalism & discarded Mendel.
    He single handedly set back science, in the English
    speaking wold, 20 years. And yet you get offended
    by my even mentioning it. It's "The wrong answer."

    "No! THEY will use reality against us! I can't admit
    to reality or empirical science is gone!"

    It's kind of the opposite, actually. In fact it is the
    opposite.

    See your faults. Stop worry about everyone else.

    Believe, you are in no position...
