LocalOrg: Science as the New Religion
February 26, 2015 (Tony Cartalucci - LocalOrg) - When money and
power are involved, those standing to gain the most will say and do
anything to push their agenda forward. Five centuries ago, saying and
doing anything involved exploiting people's superstitions and their
faith in religion. Today, saying and doing anything means also
exploiting science.
Science, engineering, and design are amongst our most practical and
effective tools to make real and meaningful change. But because they are
so powerful and appealing, the potential for their abuse in the wrong
hands is immense. Compounding this is the naivety of those who are
fascinated by science's promise but blind to its potential abuse.
