Science or Scientism?


Keith said...
If your really think the scientific method is satanic...

Then why are you on a computer?

And are you on blackplanet?


Peace!!

Keith there exists just as much apostasy in science as there exists in religion. Just as much evil has been done in the name of science as in the name of God. Just as there are high priests and shamans who claim to be the gatekeepers of God, there are self-proclaimed scientists and doctors who claim to be the gatekeepers and policemen of the “Scientific Method”.

I submit that the current gatekeepers of modern science and medicine are nothing more than scientific versions of the pharisees and sadducees whose primary concern is maintaining their own positions of power as the arbiters of truth. They have in effect created a state-sanctioned Scientific Theocracy called scientism.

My man Phillip Collins calls our current scientific gatekeepers an epistemological cartel. Another cat, Michael Hoffman makes the distinction in his book Secret Societies and Psychological Warfare:

Science, when practiced as the application of man’s God-given talents for the production of appropriate technology on a human scale, relief of misery and the reverential exploration and appreciation of the glory of Divine Providence as revealed in nature, is a useful tool for mankind. Scientism is science gone mad, which is what we have today

In his article “The Shamans of Scientism,” Michael Shermer describes scientism as: …a scientific worldview that encompasses natural explanations for all phenomena, eschews supernatural and paranormal speculations, and embraces empiricism and reason as the twin pillars of a philosophy of life appropriate for an Age of Science

Bottom line is the belief that the Scientific Method should be ecumenically imposed. That bullshit is scientism. This epistemology ostensibly eschews the supernatural and the mystical. Yet paradoxically; scientism is underpinned by two forms of mysticism: empiricism and materialism.

Keith, 90% of the cats running around here waiving the banner of “science” and “the scientific method” are the scientific equivalents of pork eating Black Muslims married to white women. They eat a diet Genetically Modified processed food that is not at all the product of the scientific method. There bodies are full of vaccines and pharmaceutical drugs endorsed by the scientific and medical communities that are not in the least bit the products of the scientific method. One of my favorite cats on here who loves to tout the “intelligence of white folks” has allowed himself to be poisoned with radioactive chemical treatments that are not at all the products of the “scientific method”.

So don’t get it twisted young Bra. DV gives it up to the Scientific Method. But gives the middle finger to occult inspired bullshit masquerading as science that produces cancer causing vaccines and HIV. I submit the herd of obese, diabetic and toxic patients pouring out of our nation’s hospitals and doctors offices as evidence that modern gatekeepers of “science” do not practice what they preach.

Shit tight top to bottom.

science got no limits... what do you think about science intervening with natural human life... well , it already does... but what about immortality?

Denmark Vesey said...

Not sure what you mean Winston.

You talking about cloning? Cryopreservation?

I'm not hip.

What you think?

There is this group of scientists that believe in 20 years or so they will be capable of reversing ageing through nanotechnologies and a better understanding of the human body. It's only a theory, but they say nanobots (microscopic robots) could replace blood cells and organs and improve mental capacity, energy, etc. I read this 'crap' long time ago in a conspiracy/newworldorder/illuminati youtube video, but I thought it was just bullshit... Now I'm wondering...

I'm really not wondering... that's the progress science always talks about... humanizing robots and creating cyborg-humans... and that's when we become gods... remember?

Denmark Vesey said...

Ahhh ...

Yeah man. This is another example of science corrupted into the occult religion of Scientism.

All religions promise its devotees some form of immortality. Either heaven, reincarnation or in this case ... perpetual physical life as a machine.

Transhumanism promises to use nanotechnology or biotechnology, or information technology to propel humanity into a "posthuman" condition.

According to this particular gospel, once he has arrived at this condition, man will cease to be man.

He will become a machine, immune to death and all the other "weaknesses" intrinsic to regular ol' human beings.

AI High Priest Ray Kurzweil says that through the merger of computers and humans, he believes man will "become god-like spirits inhabiting cyberspace as well as the material universe".

It's another version of the same ol' shit the serpent was spitting in the metaphorical garden to Adam and Eve - "Ye shall be as Gods".

Any muhfuggah promising you God status is the devil.

Whether he calls himself a "scientist" or not.
