Michael Meyen | because it couldn’t learn that anywhere

in

“The first bachelor generation is just climbing the university chairs. People who are perfectly trained in their craft, who have internalized the hegemonic ideology, and who are good advertising media for a system that needs academic confirmation in order to be able to continue to say ‘democracy’. This generation already determines what ‘good science’ is. It fills journals, conference programs, and so eventually textbooks, lectures, and seminars – with topics, perspectives, and terms it has taken from the political agenda and the tenders linked to it, and which it doesn’t…

Carl Sagan | The bamboozle has captured us

in

“One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.” Carl Sagan “Eine der traurigsten Lehren der Geschichte ist diese: Wenn wir lange genug beschwindelt wurden, neigen wir dazu, jeden Beweis des Schwindels abzulehnen. Wir…

Jesuit Pater Giuseppe Tanzella Nitti | information coming from another world

in

“Very soon we will not have to deny our Christian faith…but there is information coming from another world, and once it is confirmed it is going to require a re-reading of the Gospel as we know it.” Jesuit Father Giuseppe Tanzella Nitti | Astronomer of the Vatican and leading Jesuit theologian and Professor of Principles of Theology at the Pontifical University of the Holy Cross in Rome (former Prelate of Opus Dei) “Schon sehr bald werden wir zwar nicht unseren christlichen Glauben leugnen müssen, jedoch gibt es Informationen von einer…

Michio Kaku | in my field, uses the so-called Scientific Method

in

“In Science, we always say that you make observations you have a theory you make more observations and it’s a very very tedious process… WRONG! Nobody that I know of in my field, uses the so-called Scientific Method. In our field, it’s by the seat of your pants, it’s leaps of logic, it’s GUESSWORK.” Dr. Michio Kaku “In der Wissenschaft wird immer gesagt dass man Beobachtungen macht, man hat eine Theorie man macht Beobachtungen und es ist ein sehr sehr langweiliger Prozess. Falsch! Niemand den ich kenne in meiner Umfeld…

Michio Kaku | the largest mismatch between theory and experiment

in

“Usually in science, if we’re off by a factor of 2 or a factor of 10, we call that horrible. We say, something’s wrong with the theory. We’re off by a factor of 10! However, in cosmology, we’re off by a factor of 10 to the 120th. That is one with 100 and 20 zeroes after it. This is the largest mismatch between theory and experiment in the history of science.” Michio Kaku “Wenn wir in der Wissenschaft um einen Faktor 2 oder 10 daneben liegen, nennen wir das normalerweise…

Papst Pius XII | Big Bang – Creation – Science

in

“In fact, it seems that present-day science, with one sweeping step back across millions of centuries, has succeeded in bearing witness to that primordial ‘Fiat lux’ Let there be light uttered at the moment when, along with matter, there burst forth from nothing a sea of light and radiation, while the particles of the chemical elements split and formed into millions of galaxies … Hence, creation took place in time, therefore, there is a Creator, God exists. Although it is neither explicit nor complete, this is the reply we were…

Neil deGrasse Tyson | let the dark lord Satan show you the way

in

“Some have asked me where scientists turn after science has yielded no clear solution.

Christian Drosten | to isolate viruses in cell cultures. We never succeeded

in ,

“We also tried this for a long time, to isolate viruses in cell cultures. We never succeeded. That’s how it is for many labs around the world that have tried. Zhengli Shi is actually the only lab back in Wuhan that managed to do that, to isolate a virus for once.[….] I know Zhengli Shi used the ones in the lab for that as well. Here you have to say, when you do this, practically the first thing that happens with the SARS-2 virus is that this furin site in…

Charles MacKay | simultaneously impressed with one delusion

in

“We find that whole communities suddenly fix their minds upon one object, and go mad in its pursuit; that millions of people become simultaneously impressed with one delusion, and run after it, till their attention is caught by some new folly more captivating than the first.” Charles MacKay | Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds “Wir sehen, daß ganze Gesellschaften plötzlich ihre Gedanken auf ein einziges Thema fixieren und den Verstand dabei verlieren; daß Millionen von Menschen gleichzeitig von einer einzigen Wahnvorstellung ergriffen werden, bis ihre Aufmerksamkeit von…

Don Pettit | The only limit to human future is in our own imagination

in

“I’d go to the moon in a Nanosecond, but the Problem is that we no longer have that technology to do that anymore, we used to have it, but we destroyed it and it’s a painful process to build it back again, but going to Mars should be one of the next series of steps that humans do. The first step should be going back to the Moon for a number of technical reasons and exploration reasons. And then after that Mars, maybe high orbit in Venus atmosphere maybe going…

Dr Mike Yeadon | have taken as fact that viruses exist without ever reviewing the original papers

in

“I’m aware this two page backgrounder & experimental proposal aims to show whether or not viruses exist, focussing on SARS-CoV-2. I’m a signatory because, having given a lot of thought to the entire proposition, I now believe it’s yet another of the lies to which we’ve been subject. In the case of scientists, even those in commercial drug discovery, have taken as fact that viruses exist without ever reviewing the original papers.” Dr Mike Yeadon “Ich bin mir bewusst, dass dieser zweiseitige Hintergrundbericht und experimentelle Vorschlag darauf abzielt, zu zeigen,…

Elon Musk | you can tell it’s real because it looks so fake

in

“I think it looks so ridiculous and impossible, you can tell it’s real because it looks so fake, honestly. We’d have way better CGI if it was fake. The colors all look kind of weird in space. There’s no atmospheric occlusion; everything’s too crisp. It’s just literally a normal car in space — I kind of like the absurdity of that, it’s kind of silly and fun, but I think that silly, fun things are important … I think the imagery of it is something that’s going to get people…

Hermann Hesse | I have been and still am a seeker

in ,

“I do not consider myself less ignorant than most people. I have been and still am a seeker, but I have ceased to question stars and books. I have begun to listen to the teachings my blood whispers to me. My story is not a pleasant one; it is neither sweet nor harmonious, as invented stories are; it has the taste of nonsense and chaos, of madness and dreams — like the lives of all men who stop deceiving themselves.” Hermann Karl Hesse, Pseudonym: Emil Sinclair, war ein deutsch-schweizerischer Schriftsteller,…

Friedrich Nietzsche | the advent of nihilism

in

“What I relate is the history of the next two centuries. I describe what is coming, what can no longer come differently: the advent of nihilism […] For some time now, our whole European culture has been moving with a tortured tension that is growing from decade to decade, as toward a catastrophe: restlessly, violently, headlong, like a river that wants to reach the end, that no longer reflects, that is afraid to reflect.” Friedrich Nietzsche, The Will to Power “Was ich erzähle, ist die Geschichte der nächsten zwei Jahrhunderte….

Yuval Noah Harari | to gain control over the world

in

“I mean science, as an institution, is interested in gaining the power — to gain control over the world — to be able to gain control over diseases, over the human body, over the environment, over rivers and animals and forests. You have to submit a grant to somebody to fund, it all comes down to money, in many cases. It’s also an institution- If you’re a freelance scientist, you just explore the truth. Okay. But in an institution, a university, you need money to finance so you submit a…
