“Once science has to serve, not truth, but the interests of . . . the state, the sole task of . . . discussion is to vindicate . . . the beliefs by which the whole life of the community is directed.”

“The word, “truth” itself ceases to have its old meaning. It becomes something to be laid down by authority.”

Hayek, The Road to Serfdom, Ch XI, The End of Truth.

“Science” has now become a servant of the atheistic left.

Anything observed, discovered, or interpreted that does not serve the atheistic secular humanist agenda must be quashed by whatever means possible - Intimidation, loss of career, or legal force.

I should more regularly consult the Oracle for common wisdom applicable in any age.
