The following program contains dangerous information related to the nature of reality. Within the words, terminologies, and phrases you are likely to encounter here.
Are the tools humans use to separate fiction from fact.
The difference is real.
As different as:
A sci-fi fantasy and actual space exploration,
A children’s story and a study into childhood illness,
Any cultural mythology and every molecule that can cure a disease.
The information is dangerous because the human mind is a collection of fantasy, mythology, and storytelling.
Without them… it is unclear who or what a human being is.
Assumptions, opinions, beliefs, and biases are the underlying conditions blurring the human mind responsible for our unfocused actions and responses.
They are a seductive sedative, a blissful blindfold, a well-intended illusion and they have poisoned men’s souls, barricaded the world with hate,
goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed again and again.
Assumptions, opinions, beliefs, and biases…
What can be seen without them?
What can be learned without them?
What can be done without them?
Is science.
And there is no better place to start seeing the world for what it really is than…
This Week In Science!
Some quick science news!
Nobel Prize Time
The awards this year go to…
Stonehenge!
