Where Science End And Scientism Begines

Posted by Roaring Lovely on May 20, 2016 at 10:00am
It is not clear at all to many that somewhere science stops and then holus bolus, like an eagle snartching a chick, another impostor not any different from religion sits squarely on the throne. So here, I am going to elucidate the difference between science and 'scientism'. Here, I use science just to mean 'the collection of objective knowledge' and 'scientism' as 'the beleif in science theories'.The scientific shell gamer has two hats out of which to pull out the rabbit. When the unsuspecting lay man asks what science is, a trivial example is given. 'Science' is such processes like testing the claim that if I release an apple, it will fall to the ground. Good! The layman get accustomed with the notion that science is a collection of facts. But when you check the pockets of the snake oil pedler, you find another card! 'Science' is also inferances made by interlectuals in Berkeley or Copenhagen!Scientism is a religion around science that is pretending to be factual. It is not scence. It is 'about science'. This is worst because a lay person is never taught science in books or journals. He just read about science and he thinks that this constitutes knowing science. What is in the mind of a lay man is what I may term it as 'eureka claims'. Just the yawns from a tired nobel prize winner. People develope religion 'eurekah claims' and then argue for hours and days!Eureka! Man came from apesEureka! Give me the speed and the momentum of every particle, and I will predict everything in futureEureka! We leave in a four dimensional spacetime continuumEureka! Give me a long beam and I will balance the earth. And other stupid claims.Scientism is about making and/or unmaking beleifs. Scientism is about changing how you think with the suspection that someone comming from Harvard can think better than you. Scientism tells you what to beleif. You better beleive so because nobel prize winners, celebrities and a basketfull of similarly indoctrinated scientists beleive so. Scientism is about group thinking and peer preasure. A claim is a fact because many scientists beleive so. Likewise a claim is not a fact because many scientists donnot beleive. Scientism has swaped science with a priesthood.So every time you read an article beginning with:a)Most scientists beleive that...b)The prevailing view is that...d)The consensus is that...Donnot even read further! You can be sure that you are in for yet another Jehovah Witness on his door to door mission! Wikipedia articles are notorius at this in beginning sesions, but not in all articles. Finaly Wikipedia settles down and says the science. So Wikipedia is often good somewhere around last sessions. But it surely often begine or end in sheer scientism. Let put it on perspective, to a seeker of truth, who gives a shit about preveiling views, consensuses and what scientists beleive or doubt? This concerns the minds and not the issues. Only psychologists or psychiatrists should be interested with such.THE TRUE SCIENCE TEACHERHe is often less impresive but he imparts more. The lesson can be boring but you get something that will bring jow afterwards but not DURING THE LESSON. Those who seek quick entertainment during the lesson ends up becomming the victim of the scientism sways. While the scientism preacher donnot even need to have understood what he is preaching, a true science teacher need to have himself first mastered the lesson before he teaches others.A science teacher will NEVER begine by beating about the bush on how the theory has been proven over and over and how many scientists, people etc beleive in it. This are the hallmarks of soul winners seeking to recruite you to a new religion. The teacher wants you to think critically and to question the theory. He wants you to arrive at your own conclusion albeit based on knowledge of the facts around the theory.So the real teacher goes straight away and opens the nuts and bolts. He does not tell you that 'it is proven'. He stops at showing you how it was alegedly proven and leaves you to arrive at your own conclusion as to whether or not the proof was conclusive. He for instance stop at drawing and illustrating the apparatus, showing the maths if there and leaves you either to judge it for yourself or for you to go and carry out your own experiment. He knows that science is not about blind faith that include beleiving it because 'everybody' beleivs. Or in a poetic summary, a true teacher does tell students what is in a dark room. He stops at turning on the lights for everyone in the room to see it for themselves.
