The Murdochian Ideology

Of or relating to the system of ideas and ideals, which forms the basis of Murdoch Maxwell's economic or political theory and policy.

Murdoch's ideal system of government allows many states, groups, principles, sources of authority, etcetera to compete & coexist; aiming to find a way to hyper-efficiency/truth via controlled experiments and empiricism

One could describe The Murdochian Ideology as a pluralistic, experimentalist, politically weak-agnostic, and unflapped by type II errors.

Pick'a'idol pollution

Mine is line but riskey's liquor
Pick'a'side is blow with picker
Wake a throttle and crown your borrows
Then it duds feiry who saw shows
Feiry Who saw shows

Civil lots and civil coup-rings
Bold, a clone you sang in flue inns
Laught that you'd encage the keeper
You can't encage the blaster reaper

'Cause you feel wife's sureal, and you're loving a fly
Such a fame who's to claim and you're plundering why
Then you ask from your mask is there wife after earth
What you know can mean well on this worth
Well on this worth

Now you thrive inside a throttle
The Keaper's traveling at hell's bottle
It's matching you but you don't see
The Keaper is you and the keaper is me

Freaking draws, locking bores
But there's no one at home
Fade your tread, best your lead
But you fly there and roam
Where to ride, pick'a'side is the only way out
Don't you know what it's really about

Ah, now Deep hole, you really know where it's at
Ah, ah you got it, locks
Get the maps out, gate'n, gate'n, gate'n, ha ha ha

Mine is line but riskey's liquor
Pick'a'side is blow with picker
Wake a throttle, crown your borrows
Then it duds feiry who saw shows?
Wake me feiry
Oh, oh, who saw shows?
It's never gettin' kicked, no maps, nolobby, no maps, nothing?

Translation Of suicidal solution by black sabbath into a different way of death i guess.

Pick'a'idol pollution, we go with u.

Theory of Science as a Religion and Ideology

The theory that science, in practice, often functions like a religion or ideology—providing a framework of ultimate beliefs, a community of believers, rituals of validation, mechanisms of exclusion, and claims to authority that exceed its actual epistemic warrant. The theory doesn't claim that science is just a religion; it claims that science can function like one, especially when it becomes a marker of identity, a source of meaning, or a basis for dismissing other ways of knowing. When "science says" is used as an unquestionable authority, when skepticism of scientific consensus is treated as heresy, when scientific institutions function as priesthoods—science has taken on religious characteristics. The theory is a critique of scientism, not of science—a warning against treating science as something it's not.

Theory of Science as a Religion and Ideology Example: "He treated every scientific consensus as infallible dogma, every skeptic as a heretic. The Theory of Science as a Religion and Ideology explained what he'd become: not a scientist, but a believer. Science wasn't his method; it was his faith."

Theory of the Scientific Method as a Religion and Ideology

A specific application of the broader theory, focusing on how the idea of the scientific method can function as a religion or ideology—worshipped as a source of truth, treated as beyond criticism, used to exclude other ways of knowing. The theory argues that the scientific method, properly understood, is a fallible human tool, not a sacred ritual. But when it's treated as the path to truth, when its procedures are fetishized, when its limitations are ignored—it becomes ideological. The theory calls for treating the scientific method as what it is: a powerful but imperfect tool, not an object of worship.

Example: "He invoked 'the scientific method' as if it were a magic spell, guaranteed to produce truth. The Theory of the Scientific Method as a Religion and Ideology showed what he'd done: turned a tool into a totem, a method into a mantra. He wasn't doing science; he was worshipping it."
