Every belief system has a core and a set of pseudo logic, which is a mix of pseudo arguments ad authoritas that justify their beliefs.
Positivsts have Phisics as its core, defence shield. From this, almost everything else is derived. Because the law of angular momentum is true and is science, then science is true, and science is teach in universities, ergo everything teached in buildings next to the physics department is science, therefore is Truth. Physics use computers and publish in peer reviewed magazines, ergo long term Weather models are science, ergo global warming is Truth. Cultural determinism is Truth, because the sociology department is next to the physics department. All the truths of history, psychology, ethics and philosophy are the ones of the books that I read, because they are written by "scientists" that work in universities and are friends of physicists that have Nobel prizes. 2012/9/13 John Clark <[email protected]>: > On Wed, Sep 12, 2012 Roger Clough <[email protected]> wrote: > >> > If religion is true I would be surprised if it DIDN'T appear in myths. > > > And if religion is false I would be more than surprised I would be > absolutely astonished if it DIDN'T appear in myths.
