Scientific Agnosticism

Scientific Agnosticism is a scientific movement, based on Techno-Agnosticism, that advocates infinite massive research and studies until find out if God, gods, spiritual beings, supernaturality and extraphysics are real or not, mainly focusing on the development of massive technologies and massive investments for do so, such as the ones of techno-agnosticism. Scientific agnosticism advocates it is impossible to know if gods are real or not according to our current material, technological and scientific conditions. Advocating it is necessary to superate our limitations even more until find out signals that gods, or even extraphysical dimensions and worlds are real or not. It basically advocates similar arguments than Scientific Deism, but instead of just telling neoatheism is taking over and lazyness of scientists. It advocates they are doing wrong research and they should research about gods as they research for aliens. Scientific agnosticism always compares gods and spiritual beings to aliens, even considering that aliens might exist at extraphysical level and the told gods and spiritual beings might be the aliens we are looking for, being necessary the development of massive techno-agnostic technologies for search about them such as the search for extraterrestrial intelligence, advocating techno-agnostic principles for enable the studies of gods and spiritual beings.

"The main difference between scientific agnosticism and scientific deism is that scientific agnosticism has a lot of doubts and hypothesis about gods and spiritual beings, but still considering it is unknown if their existence is real or not, while scientific deism actually claims they are real and they should do massive research for proof their existence, basically both have different mindsets but the same goal. And, scientific agnosticism advocates it is not necessary a lot of people making research at the same time, as scientific deism actually advocates, but just the enough for scientific agnosticism be active as SETI research actually is."

"Scientific agnosticism is just based as scientific deism actually is, both are literally the same thing, different mindsets but the same goal."

For the Scientific Method's sake

The expression for the scientific method's sake is science academia aesthetic equivalent for the prosaic bland religious expression "for god's sake "meaning "An oath of exasperation, annoyance, frustration, anger, or surprise." "For the scientific method's sake" is an interjection like "For god's sake" with the literal nonreligious definition of Expressing anger, surprise, assertion etc."". This is a satirical expression that generally makes fun of scientism, but occasionally is used to make fun of the superfluity of religious expressions our society uses dude.

For the scientific method's sake! Why haven't you considered these obvi obvi conspicuous confounding variables! Of course it isn't the presence of churches that's increasing the crime rate. Tis prolly the higher population density that's causing the increased crime rates.

Anarcho-Scientism

Anarcho-Scientism, also Anarcho-Scientificism, is a scientific ideology and theory that advocates science is free and anyone can make science and follow free-method. Anarcho-scientism advocates epistemological anarchism as the base of its theory and advocates the academia and the universities should be anarchized and open to anyone graduate easily and make science easily.

"Anarcho-scientism shows well how would science work in a libertarian left society, mainly in an anarcho-communist society."

"Anarcho-scientism is what the left needs to counter scientific centrism, psychiatrizationism and other consequences of neoliberalism inside science itself."

scientific materialism

Scientific realism.

The belief that the present is predicated on the past.

Determinism.

Assumes objectivity (a materialistic past) which falls in the broader sphere of subjectivity (phenomenonology).

Semantic materialism.

Linguistically deconstructed into intangibility (metastaticity) by postmodernism.

Oblivious to the metastaticity (meta-emergence).

Scientific materialism is highly semantic. Thus it is only good for solving questions of ethics or law. Ironically these are questions in the normative sphere of phenomena in contrast to the positive sphere scientific materialism claims to answer.

sciencism

The inexpert, flawed and sometimes intentional misuse of scientific method to explain anecdotal evidence in order to foment fear of actual scientific discovery or progress and to promote confirmation bias contrary to fact.

Janet placed the key on her neck and said to inquiry panel members: "If the vaccine doesn't fill your body with magnetic crystals, then explain why this key sticks to my neck. Huh?" The key promptly falls off her neck. Janet does not realize that keys are generally brass and won't actually stick to a magnet because -- wait for it -- brass is not magnetic. The key sticks to Janet's neck at certain angles because of perspiration, similar to the spoon-on-the-nose trick kids do at Thanksgiving gatherings. Janet has resorted to sciencism to justify her reasoning for not trusting vaccination against the pandemic.
