    Jeet Heer Retweeted The Federalist

    We've entered the "science is bad" phase of the discourse.https://twitter.com/FDRLST/status/1260595658207055874 …

    Jeet Heer added,

    The FederalistVerified account @FDRLST
    Science is worshiped by a religious fundamentalism that, contrary to evidence, believes it will guide us into all truth. This is an objectively irrational, unproven and unprovable belief. http://fdrl.st/fjc

        Science is bad, death is goodhttps://twitter.com/xan_desanctis/status/1260573101148065794?s=20 …

        Counter Culture Representative added,

        Alexandra DeSanctis MarrVerified account @xan_desanctis
        It’s fascinating to see how the cultural loss of belief in God and eternity so often manifests in an outsized fear of death as the ultimate evil. Human life is beautiful and precious and good, but life on earth isn’t our ultimate end.

        Wow. That’s so messed up on nearly every level. I mean, why do they claim believe what they believe?

        And which one has more 'evidence'? Talk about being blind.

        Uh, no. These people have never ever trusted science. It's all in the Book for them.

        Science is just the systematic minimization of bias in the development of inference. It’s just a knowledge gathering technique. People who think that science is rooted in a different flavor of religiosity are conflating science with technology. Two very different things.

        Unfortunately, you're probably right. And if memory serves, our current Attorney General is one of 'em.
