They are all ideologies that rely on scientific denial.

4 通の返信Bobcast, I made a pretty solid argument that creationism isn't necessarily a denial of science. I'd appreciate if you would acknowledge my argument and attempt to refute it.

2 通の返信Ulmiusにより編集済み: 10/4/2014 4:23:19 PMWhat do they all have in common? Ignorance. Religions are nothing more than stories created by people over the years that try to explain the explainable mainly trying to make themselves feel better about dying. It is easier for someone to accept the fact that they will eventually die if they can imagine their body or soul living on for eternity which allows them a consciousness to continue experiencing things. They want a way to believe that they will always be able to be with their significant others. Unfortunately people don't realize that these are just that - stories and as a result take what the book of their religion says as fact and use some of the stories from the book to dictate how they view the world and treat other people. If someone has had a touch with death being dead for a few minutes, they'll say they saw themselves coming out of the body and whatever it is they have heard will happen. This has been studied and it shows that the main cause is with the extreme lack of oxygen and bloodflow in the brain causes extreme illusions. The experience the person has is directly tied to what their beliefs are and match up to what they've thought their entire life. Anti-vaccination comes from the ignorance of not knowing how the body works. The point of getting vaccinated is to give your body's immune system a chance to get a preview of the upcoming flu strain so it can know what to attack if the body comes in contact with it. People that aren't aware of how the body works see a few cases of someone getting autism and say, "Whoa! That person had a vaccination - let's connect the dots and say the person got autism from being vaccinated!" This connection has been disproven time and time again but the person ignores all the evidence and continues in their belief. Feminism - I don't really know much about it so I can't comment on it. I myself am ignorant on the subject of feminism. Climate change has been proven with overwhelming evidence. There are a few scientists that deny it, but these are scientists that are on the payroll of big oil companies. People will say, "Oh well a volcano puts out way more co2 than what humans put out." But that person fails to take a macro perspective of our world and look at just how many ways we have to produce co2. With 7.2 billion people on the planet (this number alone is hard for a human mind to fully fathom - kind of like the distance of light years and how far we are from other galaxies) and a crazy amount of oil/coal powered power plants throughout the world, the amount we are pumping out far outpace the amount a volcano produces. Some people are just ignorant of this and refuse to look at all the actual data that's been put out when it is in conflict with what they think. Instead, they choose to only look at the evidence that supports their idea.

1 返信Kinda depends on what level of feminism you're dealing with, but otherwise this is correct.

13 通の返信Side-answer: Scientists found Noah's Ark in Turkey using subsurface radar scans, chemical analysis, metal detection. Also the Bible is a historical document in the majority of the worldwide countries. I don't need to defend God. I'm just describing some proofs that science and creationism can coexist. Not bashing scientific lovers at all.

in my experience they all have some one that will benefit from there existence, and will usually defend it with terrible facts that a already disproven but will yell louder so more people will hear them and people who don't do research before entering an argument tend to side with the loudest person. and if someone makes the mistake of being reasonable and explaining that the don't know very much on the subject to some one supporting any of those reasons they might go into other arguments stating that the same, proven wrong, facts are true and that you are terrible for not believing them. they also prove them selves wrong sometimes which is good for a little laughter.

weilyにより編集済み: 10/4/2014 5:47:04 AMAs much as I am against religion I don't find anything listed as being mutually exclusive. Except for, of course, the anti-vaxxers. How did you get feminism = denial of science? Feminism is replete with contrarian views but I'd be hard-pressed to find a feminist + anti-science stance out there.
