It is used to provide narratives that seek to give an objective answer to the “why” questions of life as well as moral dispositions. It has a priestly class and clerical structure. Authority is derived from compliance with a university (instead of a mystery or seminary) and laity are considered unfit to come to conclusions without being dictated to. It has its own dogma. (Empiricism, methodology) It thrives off of being “settled science” (as the major figures constantly say) and it is anathema to go against the grain. It competes with other religions. It is an act of faith to trust in published science or the integrity of scientists. All the laity has is second hand documentation (similar to a shamans OBE)Most importantly it is a tool used to control and manipulate the commoners. The similarities never end!

>>42386077>It is used to provide narratives that seek to give an objective answer to the “why” questions of life as well as moral dispositions.No, it isn't, and that is why you confuse it for a religion.Science is a problem solving method that involves detail and places high value on replication. That's it.
