Science Without Conscience

“Did science promise happiness? I do not believe that. It promised the truth, and the question is whether we will ever make happiness with the truth,” Emile Zola wrote. We would like it to be so again …

Science is at its best when working for everyone’s wellfare, when researchers are sincere, when it only serves knowledge. But when sectarian dogmas petrify it, is it still useful for anyone?

As Albert Einstein conceived his Theory of Relativity, as he wrote on his blackboard the famous equation E=MC2, he didn’t guessed his work will introduce nuclear bomb. A little sooner, another scientist invented dynamite. Feeling sorry, he invested a part of his huge benefits in a foundation; his name was Alfred Nobel. Did both of them make science without conscience? It is possible. There are other ways to betray scientific ideal, less spectacular, but more dangerous.

Some of them are hardly noticeable in the every day life of a researcher. “Scientific method consists, roughly, to applicate strict mathematic and logic principles and to infer solid conclusions from a set of postulates. The first step of scientific method consists to find some facts through observation and experience. The next step consists to class and connect numerous facts in one general settlement we called a law.” said Linus Pauling, Nobel prize in Physics.  Rabelais would certainly agreed.

 

Science without conscience is a soul’s decay.

François Rabelais

 

But this perfect method is rarely used. In numerous disciplines, scientifics have no choice but to enter a sect, with total submission to main stream theory. If they dare to refuse, they will get nothing, neither job nor grant. Choosing between science and survival is quickly done for those guys. Desolating application of struggle-for-life theory, one day these followers will become the new priests of main stream religion. And they will continue an even more rigid, more powerful sect.

The integrist darwinians make a good example. But the case of Altamira and its cave paintings offers another illustration. Both cases, and others, show how power may corrupt a soul. What is the use of such precise instruments and complicated analysis if results are fake to fit the dogma? Do they need such precise datation methods if the most useful consists to give the datation found in main stream books? What is the meaning of research, if its only work consists to copy master’s pages?

Scientific method demands a total honesty and respect of data. Nevertheless, some scientists ruin their soul by dissimulating facts and discoveries menacing the established order. Happily, some of them do resist. They produce their proofs, expose their doubts, and try to publish their results.  Step by step, they collected facts, emitted hypothesis, verified their theories. On their conscience science can rely. This website is their tribune, to welcome them is our pride.

Therefore science doesn’t mix with morality. To loose conscience doesn’t mean to quit ethics. It is different, another way to face the world. We figure the universe out such a narrow-minded way.  Its uncompleteness is the major point of contemporary thinking, refusing irrational field. Mister Researcher, don’t leave your brain outside the lab, you may need it in your work. As a result, our right brain is atrophying, according to Dr Morse. And this a big problem.

Who cares about it, since nobody uses it? Actually, why do we ignore half of our mental potential? Should we be afraid of being too smart? Those of us who use a little right brain are the artists, designers. Those who use a lot of right brain are healers, seers, shamans. Those who rarely use the right brain are all the others. And it’s killing them. Why do we have a right hemisphere? Just for show? To describe his ability, the shaman will not speak of the right brain, but the “left side”. 

For him, the brain plays a secondary role in the activity of the mind. As he spoke of the whole body. The right side of the brain becomes the left side of the body because the brain is the opposite of the body. The left side, or the nagual, the door is open to all possibilities. The pure creativity. The power shrinks. The key to the Akashic records and intuitive knowledge. Why deprive ourselves of such an asset?

Accordingly, our consciousness of the world is incomplete. And our science is flawed. Without resources of clairvoyance, scientists are deprived of the best assumptions, and persist in looking in the wrong place. Fifteen years ago, a Soviet oceanographic mission came to get a large pyramid engulfed at the bottom of the Channel. They surveyed off the Scilly Islands, but in vain. If they used clairvoyance, they would search the French shore, where they should find the pyramid.

When you don’t know what you are looking for, no chance to find out.

This false science imposing its dogmas and errors is worse than ignorance. It offers a sad collection of clichés and mistakes that the average man -scheduled to be stupid- buy cash. The important thing, after all, in this temple of profit is to sell. If the devil is in the details, he is especially pervasive and universal, mouth full of hatred, blowing his relentless string of hazy theories on human smallness, on our ape origins, on foolish hope or submission.

Cowardice, hypocrisy, conformism, cynicism, tribalism, sexism, selfishness, pride, conceit, stupidity and total lack of respect for science are the main qualities of the modern scientist. Young people, if you do not have all, forget the scientific careers.

 

Let’s say the truth ever since the Lie is constantly widespread and by many: in the press and books, school and university, and everywhere it exerts its influence.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

 

Three ideals have illuminated my path and often given me the courage to face life with optimism: goodness, beauty and truth.
Albert Einstein
