The Secret Teachings 8/11/20 - Truth is Stranger than Fact: false dictums are killing science

Real science, observational analysis, has been hijacked so that the word can be used as an authoritative dictum to imply opinion is fact. Facts are then often dismissed on the grounds that they are the opinions of the uneducated anti-authority and anti-science crowd. The truth is that information is only empowering if it is founded on facts of nature, experience, and context, along with a healthy dose of common sense and critical thinking. As a result of psych-warfare, propaganda, and extremely polar personal bias, truth is not merely stranger than fiction, truth itself becomes stranger than what are considered facts. Science is therefore not merely real, it is more accurately a tool that can be used and abused by biased self-interest, to disprove what otherwise would be confirmed through objective scientific application.
