    Find me a better alternative to scientism. Oh wait, you can’t.

    Theism is extremely efficient in terms of time to decision.

    How about no religion, of any kind.

    How can you be comfortable with not knowing? It's one of the most fundamental human drives to seek understanding.
    >>
    >>17083163
    It's doomed to failure. Scientism relies on future achievement to justify itself, so the second it fails to produce that it loses the mandate of heaven.
    Christianity by comparison is already feature complete, it doesn't matter if the promised afterlife is actually real or not because nobody can go in to check then come back to tell us.

    How can you be comfortable with not having sex? It's one of the most fundamental human drives to seek sex. Your scientism is undermining your well-being by forcing you to wear a fedora at all times.

    I know there are known unknowns, unknown knowns and unknown unknowns.

    The only people who think scientism isn’t the best method we have are the sort of people who fundamentally don’t know what science even is, or how simplistic science even is.

    That means nothing. Scientism won the epistemological war. There is no better alternative.

    Science is completely arbitrary and most people are more retarded than ever before from it.
    >>
    >>17083446
    Science is not arbitrary. Scientists are.

    >Science (discipline rooted entirely in axioms and assumptions) is not arbitrary
    Keep telling yourself that.
    >>
    >>17083434
    Find me a better alternative. There are no better epistemological alternatives. You can even argue that any attempt at gaining information period is science. It’s literally just taking advantage of cause and effect. Bashing rocks together is a science.

    Scientists are egotistical twats who can’t accept being told they were wrong.
    Much like you. Yikes!
    Anyway better luck with your project!

    Technically, yes. Professionally and creatively, no.

    At least you understand your own stupidity.
    Now go back to your “laboratory” and smash your balls with rocks for science.
    Fucking idiot monkey.

    What is hilarious about religious freaks of 4chan (mainly American retards) is that it's all a performance for them. Their god would send them to hell for this shit. Not even mentioning the Loli shit on their PCs

    Even insulting trannies would be automatic hell not even mentioning them being obsessed.

    Also they never engage with proper arguments and instead reference reddit stereotypes from 2014 by fedora wearing kids...

    Science is about measurement of objects. If you go beyond that, science ends. That's why people say science is just half of the circle.

    No? Physics predates man.
    >That's why people say science is just half of the circle.
    Nature is everything. Scientific processes led up to our existence.

    >Physics is the scientific study of matter, its fundamental constituents, its motion and behavior through space and time, and the related entities of energy and force.
    THEN WHO WAS STUDY?!?
    >>
    >>17083992
    Not even Einstein saw it that way.

    Listen. Einstein saw physics as a background sympathy that plays with or without our involvement. For all time. Whether we listen in or not. Physics does not care if we’re right or wrong. Scientific processes will be happening regardless.

    Science is the study of the processes of things that *already exist*. Once you realize this, how ambient scientific processes are, you realize just how ever present science is. It’s everything.

    The mind that pokes at nature is first formed by nature.

    If it uses induction, its arbitrary.
