Featuring Lorna Green – #15: Ideas
The problems we have created for the Earth and ourselves, owe to ideas. And so, we need to rethink ourselves from the ground up. And the hope for the Earth plane is new ideas. These new ideas are in fact coming in everywhere.
The Folly of Scientism – Austin L. Hughes
Of all the fads and foibles in the long history of human credulity, scientism in all its varied guises — from fanciful cosmology to evolutionary epistemology and ethics — seems among the more dangerous, both because it pretends to be something very different from what it really is and because it has been accorded widespread and uncritical adherence. Continued insistence on the universal competence of science will serve only to undermine the credibility of science as a whole. The ultimate outcome will be an increase of radical skepticism that questions the ability of science to address even the questions legitimately within its sphere of competence. One longs for a new Enlightenment to puncture the pretensions of this latest superstition.
Featuring Lorna Green – #14: And so, where are we now?
That the problems now facing both Americans and the whole world are so great that they require everyone to go beyond Democrats vs Republicans, I would call it simply: People helping people, people helping the Earth.
