Didn't Stein write about six years ago, postulating ways to ruin American competitiveness and innovation in the course of this century, that these ways would include:
Destroy the knowledge base on which all of mankind's scientific progress has been built by guaranteeing that such learning is confined to only a few, and spread ignorance and complacency among the many. Watch America lose its scientific and competitive edge to other nations that make a comprehensive knowledge base a rule of the society.Looks like Stein has voted for mysticism, tribalism, shamanism and fundamentalism.Elevate mysticism, tribalism, shamanism and fundamentalism...to an equal status with technology in the public mind. Make sure that, in order to pay proper (and politically correct) respect to all different ethnic groups in America, you act as if science were on an equal footing with voodoo and history with ethnic fable.

philosophy in the English speaking worlds was screwed up by Francis Bacon in the late 1500 when he drew up his tree of knowledge and put theology as a subgroup of philosophy right next to witchcraft.
science is a subgroup of philosophy but theology is something very different. philosphy ends in personality and character of man or a man. Theology ends in the personality and character of God. Man is the measure of things—is a philosophical proposition. God is the measure of all things is a theological proposition. Philosophy is bottoms up. Theology is top down. The origins and ends of philosophy and theology both disappear into mystery.
