Scientism

When science turns into ideology, religion and political interests. Rather than to allow people to object, criticize and dissect the subject in the pursuit of truth. If one study have been made it is by some seen as the holy truth and is unquestionable. Everyone questioning it are "deniers" or "anti" in some way or another. Scientism also say that the scientific method is perfected and there are no biases, corruption or economic interests in today scientific research.

There are people of scientism that believe that the first study is unquestionable and call people who criticize it for "deniers" or "anti". That the sciencetific method is perfected and that that it is the absolute truth

sceneism

Being against a particular "scene", or youth subculture, such as straightedge or emo, because you are closeminded.

Sceneism against the emo scene is very common, or is at least more publicized.

It's a new form of racism, except everyone's white, listens to music that is different from another scene, and dresses differently.

Note: Sceneism, or the scene card, cannot be claimed by posers belonging to one scene. You know who you are.

Sceneism is why people call me a gothtard.

scientismist

SCI-EN-TISM-IST = Adherent of Scientism (Religion based on Science). Not to be confused with Mary Baker Eddy's CHRISTIAN SCIENCE or L. Ron Hubbard's SCIENTOLOGY.

Scientismists are usually atheists or agnostics. Sometimes they are members of mainstream religious groups, but, they tend to view the religion as being mostly a MORAL foundation, with God and Scriptural stories being symbolic rather than literal. "Cause & Effect" or "Action and Result" are common rules of thumb for the Scientismist. I avoid an action, not for fear of Hell, but to avoid the scientifically proven result of that action.

scientism

Claiming truth of a theory (or belief) based on the use of scientific methods to find evidence supporting the theory rather than to test or falsify it.

"Global Warming" believers use scientism to support their position.

scientism

Religion based on science.

Many fundamentalist Christians tell me that the world is six thousand years old. They say the Bible says so, indirectly, and they show this by comparing genealogies from Adam to Jesus. These add up to 4,000 years, and Jesus was born 2,000 years ago. I do NOT believe this because SCIENCE says otherwise.

Get REAL! Get SCIENTISM!
