Science - The Religion Of Modern Times
Posted: 9/24/2018
The almost exclusive faith in and reliance on Science as if a religion or a god has probably never been greater than today. This faith is almost irrational not least because of the many massive errors of science in the past
Scientists have come to be seen as demigods or priests of truth or prophets or oracles. Unfortunately, scientists are only human, all too human!
In modern times, fanaticism is often based on unverified and unproven scientific conjectures propagated as laws of nature
Such blind faith in Science is the superstition of modern times. Another irony of history
Common sense requires sound skepticism!
