Is Science the Whore of Babylon? (Bible term)

[questfortruth]

Science has done two things: created viruses for bio-weaponry (to reduce the less rich population), and created the shots against them. Business and pleasure.

What rubbish.

And Rand Paul, or Paul Rand, or whoever he is, is a grandstanding jerk.

 

[lewisnotmiller]

Science has done 2 things, suggests the internet welding man who regularly promotes his own sadly misunderstood scientific theories.

News at 11.

I experience a cognitive dissonance because of your name (quest for truth), and your epistemology (watching Fox).

Dontya just love those dissing science have no problem using science to grandstand their dissing.

The hypocrisy does not escape me

Science have done more than that, it has done much for humanity, but not ao much for spiritual quest.

Science is not evil

Without science you would die at 30 (if you managed to survive until then without falling sick or dying as a child) and wouldn't have a third of the everyday commodities and comfort you live with (including appliances, transportation, food availability and diversity, etc...)

But go on I suppose.

I have been told multiple times that I, in fact, am the Whore of Babylon.

Science can take a hike, then. That crown is mine.

Without science RF would never have happen

Yeah, what have the Romans ever done for us?:

@questfortruth -

I have never seen anyone else so intent, so eager, to marginalize themselves, to make themselves totally irrelevant.

 

[Augustus]

That's not really true based on historical experience.

If you survived childhood your life expectancy was 20-30 years longer than that.

Average life expectancy was low in the past because of infant mortality, not because most adults died at 30.

I assumed it was ironic.

Do you do home visits?

Do you do home visits?

No, you have to come.

Not really.

I have enormous respect for science, and particularly for the spirit of scientific enquiry. But we have to concede that, without the huge leaps forward science took in the early part of the 20th Century, Hiroshima and Nagasaki would still be standing.

I think your count is wrong

It wasn't science that dropped the bombs.
