RE: Corrupting Science to Eliminate Facts
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
I have read many good posts and comments by you in the past but this must be the most important I have come across thus far.
The trick really is in the words: society calls something "science" and voila - noone is able to recognize anymore that the claim made is in fact nothing but superstition and faith-based dogma rather than discernible provable fact (the way we expect it, and the way it should be.)
"Science" no longer resembles the scientific method at all and hasn't for centuries.
I had to change my worldviw so often the more I found out what is scientifically solid and what isn't. The biggest most "certain" views are built on audaciously slim foundations. So much so that I keep marveling when I come across a topic I have never actually looked at in depth for myself. Only to find that it too is a poor attempt at fairytaling me, but I had always just taken it for granted. It's schocking because I have to look for mere hours to see entire eras of dogma fall in on themselves, just because they are so full of holes and logical flaws.
The crown (corona) of manipulation is maintaining these narratives as fact, narratives that have been in the making for centuries and have never undergone factual analysis. The degree of how widespread they are and how many of them I once took as self-evident truths is outright offensive to me now that I look back. It's quite exhilirating and liberating as well.
It taught me to never put full unreserved faith into any tale I hear uttered by someone else, it is as you say: You have to be able to prove it for yourself or it can't be claimed with certainty that it is in fact as it is claimed. Only: I never thought just HOW FAR that would take me away from the stories I held true most of my life. Most narratives are nothing but a modern fairytale with the prestige of the word "science" backing them.
Seeing through so many of the holes in these narratives will invite new falsehoods all the time, but the more I keep myself in check and try not to hurry to a new model that claims to be factual the more I can discern what I find convincing and what is just a poor attempt of honeypot'ing me on my way to actual truth.
Not sure if you are familiar but I keep feeling the need to share one of the biggest gems from my journey because of your article here so please allow me. Sheldrake's lecture on the 10 most prominent dogmas of modern science. I would be nowhere without his work showing just how flawed and uncertain these narratives are that have become the basis for an entire age of "scientific insight". Have rewatched the lecture many times and it still is one of the best pertaining to the topic you mentioned here, without forcing you into new mind prisons. Maybe it will sweeten up your day a bit ;)
I am thrilled to hear that the virus hype actually had something beneficial coming out of it. I hope many many actual questions will be asked by people out there following this weird episode of life in the human matrix.
Reblogged.
Haven't run across Sheldrake before, and watching now. I am very glad my comments resonate with folks, because I cannot succeed alone against the massive institutions allied against me, and all free people. I have been rolled over by that juggernaut before, and survived, if walking away in borrowed socks.
Thanks!
I know, it's such a behemoth.
I think our time is coming though, the shenanigans have been going on long enough.
All the best to ya dude
While I have not before heard Sheldrake speak, nor read anything of his, I confess some flavor of ill reputation had somehow come to my awareness.
However, after watching his presentation I cannot complain of any lack of reason on his part. Indeed, his criticisms of science are spot on. While uninformed as to his assertions regarding lightspeed and it's constancy (which I find alarming, as that would unmoor my ship of physics from it's comforting bounds of constancy and a sense that I have some little grasp of how the universe actually works, quite entirely), I can but say if he speaks truthfully, it is indeed a fundamental flaw revealed at the most basal level of not only our present understanding, but our methods of gaining that understanding.
I have much to process after being so jolted out of my smug hubris, and thank you profusely for restoring my much more appropriate sense of humility regarding matters beyond my ken, and far above my pay grade.
We all think we are experts until we realize we may be missing something major - provided we are humble enough and willing to keep an open mind, which is so tough to do because we have never really learnt it. I had to come down from my high horse so often, realizing that I had always held the same viewpoints as self-evident that I have started to look past. Just look at all those people who really belief all the contradictory and unfactual claims about the cov-ID hype out there. without question. What will it take to shake them from their trance? It really is hard to say...
Contrary to what we have been told though the great thing is: It's not a contest. It's great realizing everyone might have a major piece to the puzzle. Even people who make side comments that show great lack in understanding in one area, might just have the missing piece for an area I am interested in or even versed in, stumbling upon it from their (uninformed) reamrks. In this way anyone can become a great teacher without quite realizing it.
I do not agree with Sheldrake in all points either, it was just such a glorious shortcut to getting a good overview on how many disciplines of 'science' function today - quite against the scientific method and more like... a church. That is my take anyway.
Really glad you found the talk useful. He does have a bad reputation in established circles of science, much like Anthony West does in Egytpology (hinting at the truer estimation of the age of the Sphinx among many other history-narrative-busting facts), regardless of the huge merit they bring to the table for really important questions about humanity, our history and the natural world we are living in - they are shunned and labeled as lunatics.
Sheldrake "came out" decades ago and due to his chosen fields of interests that atomists cannot allow in their curriculum they will outright deny him any open ears and will vehemently deny that these phenomena - regardless of the evidence - exist at all. Drawing on many other sources for the things Sheldrake is talking about and ON MY OWN EXPERIENCES I find it rather convincing to suggest we don't have the faintest idea about reality in our "scientific" meainstream. And mostly all the things we think we know for certain are fariytales. But what do I know?!
I can say that the journey is still ongoing for me. I see things as likely and many things as highly likely today that I would have scoffed at years ago and even months ago. One cannot undo a lifetime of indoctrination in a few days and so it is essential we all take our time and stay with our own understanding and evaluation lest we fall into new fairytales that are unfactual. I keep saying it and I keep meaning it: Nobody knows what's up on Earth. We all just think we do.
All the best to ya dude and thanks for your feedback on Sheldrake!
Overcoming indoctrination at all depends on an open mind. Mark Twain remarked that it was far easier to fool someone than to convince them they'd been fooled. This reveals open minds are not prevalent, nor encouraged by our indoctrinators.
That's easy. Up is away from down.
