In Response To: Re: Rubicon Volunteers - Science Stands Alone (Agent Cletus)

: But the problem is the science doesn't stand alone, because Humans are
: entirely subjective creatures. We mix "science", which can only
: truly be performed by an objective creature, with our own opinions. Take
: biological science, for example. There are two main camps in America, the
: Evolutionists and the Creationists. Both use "scientific"
: methods to research the same evidence, yet come up with different, though
: not diametrically opposite, conclusions. The point is not whether
: evolution or creation is the moving force of life: the point is that each
: camp bitterly denouces the other *for reasons of ideology* (!!!) So
: science doesn't stand alone. It sits as one of the many tools of the Self.
: And self is the only thing that stands alone.
This is so completely wrong on so many levels that it's not even funny. Science is not mixed with opinions; there aren't two main camps of biological science; creationists don't use the scientific method; science is not an ideology; there are no mass denunciations. It's obvious that you haven't paid attention in any of your science classes. It also seems that you believe the "social construct" criticisms of science, which are crap. Sure, we practice science in a particular time and place. Duh. The time and place have no bearing on physical truths. Look up Sokal's hoax and read about it.
: Also look at research and development. Admitedly, many scientifc discoveries
: were made by accident. But they really didn't "just happen."
: Someone decided, for reasons of his self-fulfillment, to be a researcher.
: If he stumbled upon a great thing, like X-rays, he furthered the research
: and benefited humanity. However, how many people *could* have made the
: discovery, and didn't, because they didn't care to live the lifestyle that
: would lead to discovery???
This paragraph makes no sense whatsoever.
