You're entirely missing the point; which is blind faith in technology and scientific authorities, and humiliation and public shaming of anyone who dares to step out of line.
Same, same but different. At least you can hold your local shaman responsible when you learn that he took money to feed you lies.
Are you saying that matter can't be infinitely subdivided? Because I'm pretty sure the jury is still out on that one.
- losteric 8y agoBlind faith in anything is wrong. The difference is scientific process invites peer review, reproduction, and alternative theories. > At least you can hold your local shaman responsible when you learn that he took money to feed you lies. Gods work in mysterious ways. The good shaman give advice that is always right no matter what happens, and fault you for misinterpreting the good word.
