The Science Delusion - Rupert Sheldrake

TED banned this talk back in 2013 and after a huge debate on the TED forum for a couple weeks, they decided to just re-host it, but only on the website blog post.

That should tell you something about the points Rupert Sheldrake hit in the presentation and why you have to question everything with a similar frame of mind. The rigid, materialist way of thinking with today's contrived and unattainable standards of evidence has severely held back the pursuit of knowledge and genuine truth, and has left a ton of people in this godless CULT OF SCIENTISM where the white labcoat wearing elites are the new priests dictating reality.

The baseline assumption at this point should be “how are they inverting the truth?” and trying to understand their motivations for why they would lie or stay silent. Like with trying to understand why a doctor might vote yes on a COVID vaccine being given to 6 month old babies through self interest, greed, and/or fear. Money and fear of death are very effective at keeping people in line and doing something immoral, and it's really just that simple sometimes. Scientists are no different than politicians in this respect and just as easy to control.

10 Dogmas of Science

1. Nature is mechanic: all the creatures and systems of nature are robots made to follow a given genetic program.

2. Matter unconscious: Plants, stars, animals and elements are material things that are and cannot have a consciousness of themselves.

3. The laws of nature are fixed: At the moment of the Big Bang all the necessary constants until the end of time were established. The habits of nature do not evolve.

4. The amount of nature and energy in the universe is always the same.

5. Nature has no purpose: there is no design in nature in terms of intention and the process of evolution is mechanic.

6. Biologic Heritage: The plans to produce a living being are composed within the physical matter lodged in their genes.

7. Memory is kept in the brain as material prints: memory is made of proteins and nerve endings organized as a drawer within itself.

8. Mind is in the head: The mind has a physical connection with the head and the brain, relegating intellectual subordination on the rest of the body.

9. Phenomena like telepathy are impossible: thoughts have no effect in the world because of number 8 on the list (The mind is in the head).

10. Only mechanical medicine works: It is merely by chance or placebo effects that traditional healing practices or natural remedies have any effect on people’s health.
