"The science is settled"
We have heard this uttered many times.
And some silly people who think they know a bit about science say, "that statement is unscientific". Unfortunately, these people do not know science very well.
Science, and it's theories/laws are relegated from on-high. The ivory towers tell us plebs what is, and isn't science.
And you will be excommunicated if you say anything different.
This is the way things are.
Most of what we teach in modern materialistic science classes is completely false. It has been falsified, debunked. Shown to not hold water.
Why do any of these laws and theories still exist?
There is only one reason, scientism is a religion, and not really science.
Adherents will be told what to believe, and they will believe it or else they will be excommunicated.
Many adherents of "the science" say something like, "If what you are saying is true, then the scientific community would have thrown out that theory. And since they haven't, what you are saying must be false"
Here we have people believing in the gospel as written by Einstein. Who have never really read the book. But, they believe in the high holy order of ivory tower experts.
The theory of gravity holding the galaxy together was soooooo off, that it should have just been discarded. AND THEN!!!! Vera Rubins noticed, and then took 10 years to verify before releasing, that galaxy spin as if every star was glued to a plate. This means that the idea of gravity holding the galaxy together / gravity being a result of mass, is complete bunk. No, not even bunk, it was off by factors of billion-billions. Normally, something that wrong is not even considered.
But, not only did they not debunk/discard the theory, they made up things. Matter that we cannot see. Energy that we cannot measure. And LOTS of it, to balance out the equations. So, the ivory tower adherents patched up their precious theory.
What is worse, is that the science community won't even look at other theories.
"I thought that science was about exploring new theories?" Well, that is not the way Scientism works. They may say that in the early classes, where they discuss "theories" and "scientific method", but they do not believe in these things when it comes to the core beliefs. You are a heretic for exploring, thinking, even discussing with your fellow man anything that goes against the core tenants of the holy book, the Modern Physics Textbook.
We will see inventions, probably in the next decade, that will outright defy the holy doctrines.
Things that just float in the air, like bricks don't. Not anti-gravity. It just doesn't fall down.
Faster than light communication. Aether-net
Perpetual motion machines. They just spin, and keep spinning.
Basically, things that SHOULDN'T exist if the laws of Scientism are correct.
Basically, we are going to go through a time where the High Holy Scientists try to defend the undefendable.
And, those of scientific minds will know that it is undefendable.
"Where is your disproof", the His Highness of the Ivory Tower shouts! Everyone points at the car that just floats in the air.
At some point people stop believing in Scientism, however, it may take a generation. The indoctrination of the masses takes a long time to undo. Many people cannot change their minds after a lifetime of believing. So, we may have to wait till the old guard dies and a new crop is raised.
The big problem will be that a great many people, a lot of brain power, will be spent trying to fix the "holes" in the old theories. Like coming up with "dark matter" and "dark energy". A huge waste of time. And what is worse, is it may suck in many of the young into the old, dark ways, basically wasting their lives, when that could have been avoided.
Science will advance. Because the truth is the truth. The truth is out there to be discovered, no matter how much a class of people have tried to hide it / discredit it.
