You know, I really do love science. I mean science has given us light bulbs and lap tops, nylon and satellite images of earth, not to mention antibiotics and the internet. If it weren't for science, you wouldn't be reading this right now. Science can be good, very good.
Having said that, it is also true that science can be bad, very bad. How so? Great question. Basically, science is bad whenever it leaves its mother-root of reason and instead pursues an agenda of other value. The best exampls of this are probably found in the pharmaceutical industry where billions are spent researching new drugs that will save human lives, then marketed relentlessly until someone wakes up to the fact that the latest miracle cure actually causes liver cancer, or severe rectal leakage... That isn't "science" anymore, its "commercial science." Another example of science awry can be found in the stream of materialist philosophy. What? Materialist philosophy; atheism; humanism; naturalism, whatever you want to call it. What I mean is that there is a great deal of 'science' out there being hijacked by a materialist agenda. Facts are twisted, or worse, denied outright in an effort to prove a non-science point. Usually what happens is that a scientist or group of scientists, starting with a personal bias or agenda, bends the rules to produce the result they desire, then calls every media outlet they can find. And if that fails, they just say the same thing louder and with more frequency until every gullible mark has been fooled. (Occasionally, they'll alert the media first, then perform their 'science,' which is even MORE unsettling.) Examples of this might include the "God helmet" touted so highly by Michael Persinger at Laurentian Univeristy (Canada), the Jesus Seminar, and meme theory (touted by the renowned atheist Richard Dawkins).
Gotta go, I'll finish this later...
