The loss of genuine scientific method in the mainstream narrative is a cultural reflection of western thinking. The genuine process of seeking knowledge and identifying truth has given way to a new religion some call Scientism. Its a form of pseudo-science that serves a a mock justification for a political agenda. But is the fakery just for the purposes of manipulation or is there genuine error? Or perhaps is there a mixture of the two – where the deceivers actually believe some of their own delusions?
In this weeks Podcast Patrik Holmqvist and Nigel Howitt discuss the many manifestation of the loss of scientific method in the mainstream narrative, offering numerous examples. They also shed some light on the reasons why this is happening.
Some likely causes of the loss of genuine scientific method
A Failure to think logically
Today we see a widespread inability to think logically among both lay-people and the so-called scientists! For example, epidemiological studies are considered sufficient to claim knowledge with no need to isolate variables in rigorous scientific studies that isolate variables. This is particularly true among those who advocate for veganism or vegetarianism. The China Study being one example. We also see the mainstream virologists conducting their experiments to “isolate” viruses without proper controls that would reveal that it is the process itself of growing the cell culture that produces the so-called cytopathic effect blamed on the alleged virus.
The most obvious sign that logical thinking is no longer practiced among the general population is the fact that the majority fall so easily for logical fallacies. Most people will believe the narrative for 2 main reasons that have nothing to do with logic. Firstly, because everyone else believes it. And secondly, because the message is championed by authority figures. Appeals to majority and appeals to authority are not logically valid arguments.
* Contradictions don’t exist in reality.
The fact that contradiction cannot exist out there in reality is the basic principle of all logical thinking and rational thought. Contradictions only exist in the minds of men who do not resolve their mental contradictions. Whenever a contradiction is found in a reasoning process or in opposing claims it should be investigated because it shows there is an error. A contradiction is a warning flag showing that reasoning is incorrect. The contradiction must be resolved by identifying which of the contradictory claims is false. Two opposing claims cannot both be right.
If you knew nothing else this principle would guide you to uncovering an enormous amount of nonsense that passes for knowledge in our current cultural context.
* Unquestioned Assumptions
Assuming things are true is very necessary, and we all do it all the time. But when contradictory evidence is found it should rightly be investigated to resolve the contradiction. Genuine scientific method will always seek to disprove a challenging claim. The truth loves to be questioned because it refines certainty. Only the lie is afraid of questions.
Today we see censorship being exercised where legitimate questions are raised. This is the refusal to allow the questioning of assumptions. This is clear proof that genuine scientific method has been abandoned and that manipulation is being practiced.
* Not thinking in fundamentals
We see the advocates of the virus story refuse to question the fundamental assumption of Germ Theory. This is a theory that has been contradicted by many facts many times. yet still the theory is clung to like dogma. The fundamentals of rocket propulsion theory are held sacrosanct and are not allowed to be questioned, yet they logically show that leaving the earths atmosphere is impossible using this technology because a gas expanding freely in a vac...
