RE: The Cult Of Scientism: "Trust The Science"

in Deep Dives3 years ago

These are valuable clues to what one might be mistaken about oneself. Only the misguided do not doubt. Science, if it is not dogmatic, lives from constant doubt and debate. Where it fails to do so, it is no longer science.
People seem to have a very deep need for faith, presumably because they feel deep down that the world will never really be revealed to them in its entirety. Since modernity has destroyed everything that existed in terms of spirituality, ritual and faith, the person longing for faith looks for what offers itself as a substitute. In doing so, they fall for the deception of those who cling to their dogmas and actually spread superstition without knowing it, but hide it behind titles and incomprehensible language.

Orthodox medicine - I exclude some areas - is just as much magic and bound to faith as non-orthodox medicine. Belief in doctors' statements alone, such as "You have six months to live", are a kind of voodoo, which of course contain nothing provable at all. The proof itself is already a superstition, the deep desire for provability of theories a religion. I hardly see any difference between a shaman concocting a medicine and the way pills are packed into boxes by a factory line. The suggestions are there in both cases, just in very different ways, so that one can hardly bring them together. The chemical effect of remedies is a fact for me, but how they affect me and my organism personally is something no one can really predict or determine.

Probably the biggest mistake of orthodox medicine is to deny that spirit has any influence on matter. This is as ridiculous as it is untrue. I am firmly convinced that the mental condition of a person definitely has an effect on his physical condition and vice versa. This can also be observed as a mass phenomenon, or at least it falls into one's own observation space as soon as one looks.

For me, the virus theory is superstition made manifest, where, if you switch on your mind, it should actually be immediately clear that we have left the apparent and tangible and are reducing ourselves to pure abstraction. While we completely forget that we cannot really understand a single one of the scientific explanations for it. It is completely incomprehensible for laymen to be able to follow this theory and also the research from the past centuries. What is completely incomprehensible to me personally in this context, I cannot accept as real. It is my personal decision to think this way and to reject this theory. Because I don't care if someone else thinks it is proven, because even he, as a layman, doesn't know anything about it at all. The question that is in the background is: Do you have to go through your own studies of biology etc. first to understand the matter? My answer is "no", of course not.

The initiates of so-called science, however, elevate themselves above the unknown, forgetting that they are not explaining laws, but only theories.
