LOL!!!!
You accept that you are ignorant... thus are and must be dependent on others telling you the truth... since you cannot determine the truth for yourself...
I am not ignorant... and not dependent on others determining the truth for me...
Because not ignorant... i can generally tell when others are lying... know how to find out if they are in any case... and don't depend on anyone else to tell me that... ?
And... because I AM a scientist... I am not baffled by clueless bureaucrats fostering science fictions as "narratives" based on their preferred lies... and not science... in an effort to control me ?
They used to use God to do that for them ? The monarchists told you... God willed them to rule you ? And, who were you to object to God in his dictates ?
Then, as doubts (finally) crept in, for a long time... they used the authority of the church for the same purpose... as an "independent validating authority"... ? Don't believe the new King... who just murdered the rest of his family to take the throne... that it was all God's idea ? Well, OK, just check with the Pope, and, yeah, sure enough... it really was all and only God's idea... So, all good then... ?
You'd think maybe that would reasonably occupy... all of two years of history... instead of some total vastly more than the two thousand for which we've keep fairly decent records ?
But, shortly after that whole thing with the Inquisition began... people quickly (in relative terms) grew tired of the pairing of pedantry with unchecked violence... and 333 years later. Martin Luther finally did something useful to check the corruption enabling it... only not enough to stop Priests and British Royals from diddling and murdering innocent children in the wilds of America... even 400 years later ? Hmmm.
Now, some moron from the marketing department puts on a white lab coat... and tells you that you must submit to their latest insanity... use a particular brand of toothpaste... smoke the healthiest brand of doctor approved cigarettes... let them inject you with some experimental drug that has never passed a test before... because "it's science" ? And, you genuflect like an idiot... smoke the right brand... buy the only right tube of toothpaste... and otherwise conform to what you are told to do ?
LOL!!!!
No, I don't think I'm going to follow the advice given to me by the lab rats... |
