I don’t agree with your assesment, but I’m glad the “science people” can provide entertainment for your inner bitch.


The Bitches and Sires of science smelling each others read ends is indeed entertainment..
and the puppies can be cute but some are born dead..

Too bad they aren't really puppies. You could kill the ones that lived.

Reverend R7 Rocket:

“While you, oh editor-surveyor, condemn the deviants of homosexual or tranzie persuasion, thou hast given shelter to deviants of the Jezebel persuasion.”

Praise be to the Reverend of St. Tom Leykis.

Fascinating.

Are you "womanhater" the mod at MGTOWforums.com or do you just like quoting him?

Either way, when you post an excerpt on Free Republic, you are expected to also provide the source - otherwise the mods will get upset and posters will accuse you of plagiarism.

There are people who try to abuse it by trying to apply it beyond it's logical limits, but that's not the proposition she's agreed to. What she's agreed to is not just going after the people who abuse it, but going after science itself, in any context and any application, by anyone.

Absolute HOGWASH, tacticalogic!

Jeepers, if you're going to characterize what I said, I think it would have been polite for you to ping me.

Your characterization is not what I said, and is not at all my position.

I was not characterizing what you said. I was characterizing what hosepipe said in our exchange, and he’s not disagreed with that assesment. You volunteered that based on that exchange you would side with hosepipe. If that’s not your position, why are you agreeing with him?

“You volunteered that based on that exchange you would side with hosepipe. If that’s not your position, why are you agreeing with him?”

Spirited: It’s my position. I agree with hosepipe.

Science, or scientia (L.) means knowledge, or comprehension of a collection of truth and facts with respect to a particular area of interest such as philosophy, mathematics, chemistry, metaphysics, art, musicology, and yes, even cooking. There’s nothing complicated about true science.

The idol you are defending tacticalogic, is natural science and Darwinism, or scientism, the amoral magic twin of scientia. To be accused of anti-science blasphemy with regard to the scientism idol is an honor.

That's not hoespipe's position. He says science is people, and that all of them are wrong. So far everyone that says they agree with him immediatly turns around and contradicts him. He's seems to be a remarkably misunderstood individual, which I find puzzling. While I don't agree with him, I appreciate that he doesn't seem to equivocate or mince words.

Be specific... else you be projecting..

” He says science is people, and that all of them are wrong.

Spirited: Just as a state is comprised of people prone to errors in thinking, biased in favor of this or that, sometimes irrational sometimes not, some of them humble, some excessively self-centered and proud, so is science.

Solzhenitsyn famously said, evil cuts through the heart of every man and woman. The same holds true for scientists.

The assesment in question was quoted in the post:

not just going after the people who abuse it, but going after science itself, in any context and any application, by anyone.

Is that not an accurate assesment?

WHOA.... I didnt say all we’re wrong.. or even say what anybody was wrong about...
I merely implied “science” is a CARGO CULT... it was hyperbole true..
But It’s also true there are different cargo’s..

I threw in “witch doctors” for effect...
and didnt even highlight the feathers chants “masks”... amulets totems and charms..
because I was being NICE.....

But a lot could be made the costumes they wear.. i.e. suits, ties, wing tips, pant suits.. pocket protectors.. asssorted geek-wear..
Updated sophisticated witch doctor chic’...

But I didnt do that either.. what is you’re main snivel”?..

The apparent disconnect between your definition of “science” and hosepipe’s. You’re wanting to have it both ways, too.
