    Science COULD answer if a football team will win. Theoretically you could measure the weather, the bodies of all the players, the pressure of the ball, people’s inclinations and personalities and moves they’re most likely to make. Especially if you believe everything is pre determined, theoretically science could follow the conclusions of how everything is in a certain scenario to the end of how things will play out

    Need Jordan to explain. Hive mind needs an operating system to perceive reality and cooperate. Will incorporate as much evidence based knowledge as there is available, but takes many years to integrate. Integration took centuries, but much faster now. Don’t think Dawkins understands religion because he does not think it is necessary and therefore does not understand understand its function.

    A down-and-out person is brought before a Standard of Care psychiatrist: He begins by evincing crocodile tears of concern, then prescribes neurotoxic drugs or ECT, while financializing him as a long term cash cow. This ethical protocol continues to secure the finances of the Mental Health - pharmaceutical co-franchise within a globalist system that has $2 thousand trillion of gambled-up, parasitic claims! Deceit?

    I don’t see this as bleak at all! People need community. Now we know what we’ve been denied under capitalism so we know what to start changing. Don’t throw out the baby with the bath water. Psychology still has a great purpose. People in trauma still need individual care post trauma. Just take out the bit about making therapy all about making a good workforce. Take capitalism out of therapy.
