Do you have march fatigue yet? The left, apparently, does not, so we’re in for some street theater on Earth Day, April 22, with the so-called March for Science.
It’s hard to think of a better way to undermine the public’s faith in science than to stage demonstrations in Washington, D.C., and around the country modeled on the Women’s March on Washington that took place in January.
The Women’s March was an anti-Donald Trump festival. Fine. I found it vulgar and demeaning to women, but it’s a free country.
Science, however, to be respected, must be purely the search for truth. The organizers of this “March for Science” — by acknowledging that their demonstration is modeled on the Women’s March — are contributing to the politicization of science, exactly what true upholders of science should be at pains to avoid.

Leftists are trying to destroy science now.
Here’s how the scientific method works in liberal land: Evidence is based on a pre-determined conclusion. Any that doesn’t fit that conclusion is ignored. Any that does is overemphasized. Those who agree with a particular conclusion become the consensus. The others don’t matter.

Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!

Well Said!
What’s amusing is that however far science can take you in the theories of evolution and global warming, it doesn’t get you to 100% scientifally-certain truth yet the Left never fails to assert that it is and badgers anyone who disagrees as being “anti-science”. Well, I’m not anti-science, I’m pro truth and the truth is that neither interspecies evolution nor man-made global warming are scientifically proven.
To Leftists, a fact is the most irrelevant quantity of all. For them, believing is seeing. In scientific method turned on it’s head, conclusion first to fit a desired hypothesis, and then fabricate “data” to make both ends align. Reference Michael Bellisles’ work of fiction “Arming America.”
The answer to the question: Never.
When I was a grad student in the ‘70s, there was a bumper sticker ... LEGALIZE PHYSICS ... Say what? A little hard to get to, but I think it’s fair to say it expressed a sense of physicists “on the outside”.
Now, Science isn’t Physics, but Climate Science and Other Science, which we might think have co-opted the intellectual authority that Physics recently enjoyed, before it evaporated into thin air after the final triumph of the Higgs Boson.
... so where does that leave SCIENCE ???
They couldn’t spell it.
I love it when liberals scream “I believe in science” while spewing total garbage about global warming that a 7 year old can see through. I once argued with a lib who wasn’t aware that there was no air on the moon.
The Progressive Movement stands firmly against ANYTHING that has firm, consistent definitions that they cannot manipulate and use to control people. They need “nuance” and “living documents” and 57 genders etc, all so that INGSOC can make people think, err, feel, whatever they wish at any given moment, in any given set of facts. Have anyone not noticed this yet?
>Science, however, to be respected, must be purely the search for truth.
Amen. I pray those on the right embrace Science long before the left...as the left will be the enemy of right from wrong.
Never let evil prevail.
Never.
They like consensus, and “Associations” (of Pediatricians, Cardiologists, etc) as royalty. They far prefer bullying non believers than questioning authority and putting information through the scientific method.
Oh. They also like MONEY. Über alles, actually.
Liberals are confusing. Last month, science was a racist white repressive construct, now they’re marching for it. Next thing you know, they’ll be marching for the King’s English classes.
Interspecies evolution? Have you checked lately? Species, as defined, are so numerous and simliar, that you have to be trained to differentiate them. In other words, they are mere "clans" in the scheme of things.
You might gain traction by scaling back to intergenus .. well, same problem ... or interfamily ... but hmmm, here we have the Superfamily Elateroidea, comprising a variety of families in the class Coloeptera ( Beetles ).
Well Ok then, ORDERS ! The Orders of the Insects were separately created, and each evolved into distinct families, each with their genus and species ... but that won't do, will it?
Ah, truth. We live in an age of Postmodern "science." As a Postmodern-thinking acquaintance put it to me yesterday:
"There is no truth; just interpretation."
Bye-bye Enlightenment and the Scientific Method. The Postmodernists have gobbled this silly bait hook, line and sinker.
Dude ... We don’t even know how gravity attracts or electrons repel each other.
Progressives are irrational Marxists who are removed from Reality and Natural Law (science/logic/reason).
They (as planned by Fichte in 1800s and the homosexual pederasts) knew that if they could control Words and destroy their meaning and intent, they could destroy all traditions and erase Christian culture for their “utopian” totalitarian hell-hole. It would be easy if they could get young children out of the Natural family so they could warp all their perceptions of male and female and maturity and destroy virtue formation (embed dependency and “group-(non)-think” in their indoctrination factories with their psychological warfare on the minds of children designed by the likes of Billy Ayers types.
They knew they could actually make children totally removed from Reality and believe “snow is black”, Up is Down, Boys are Girls, Sodomy is a Virtue, etc., etc., etc.
Why? Without virtue there is only slavery of the masses. There can be no freedom—only serfdom, feudalism, collective, tribal, socialism (slavery of the virtuous). Free Will and Individualism are impossible in those evil cultures where there is no possibility of critical thinking (Science). That is why the Leftists have to destroy the Christian worldview—it is the ONLY one which made the Age of Reason and Laws of Non-Contradiction possible. Marxists can’t have individualism and individual natural “rights” from God——only from the State. They need to be able to kill those who don’t conform to the State ideology. There is only complete control over every idea and thought and desire you can have.
Control words like “liberal” which now means fascist, and marriage, which is now meaningless, and create irrational behaviors as “good” like sodomy and baby-killing and you normalize vice and destroy virtue formation in all children raised in that culture.
Warped for Life like the snowflakes where only “cognitive dissonance” will occur when they are exposed to Truth (God) and real science (Natural Law Theory—Laws of Nature and nature’s God).
Science has to be eliminated for the Brave New World where Slavery is Freedom and Boys and Girls are all interchangeable and terms like mother and father (and all biological connections) are non-existent. Destroy the Natural family and you destroy the emotional health and ability of children to be moral and mature and rational (capable of understanding Natural law Theory — Science).
The theme of the march, “Lysenko was right”.
For you kiddies, you’re gonna need to google some Soviet history and economic planning/behavioral control stuff.
When they start losing the money and power that comes with scientific fraud.
