It's No Wonder Science In America is in Trouble

The books that kids are given in public schools for science studies have completely given up on being sneaky.  They are blatantly teaching fallacies and lies and are proud of it.

One of the more "enlightened" concepts to hit the science scene is that there is no Scientific Method.  nope.

They teach our kids that there are scientific methodologies, because, you know, there s more than one way to investigate and research. 

The premise behind this is that they want to play word games.  When they say there is no single Scientific Method, they are talking about and give examples of methods of study such as using inductive reasoning, deductive reasoning, etc...

This is important because when most people talk about THE Scientific Method, they are referring to the philosophical approach to science that has been established since it began.  The Scientific method doesn't try to tell students of Science which particular methods to use in their studies, only that they follow a mental and ethical set of guidelines in the pursuit of Science.

But no, in the textbooks, they obfuscate that because mainly their goal is to teach kids that in science, it doesn't matter what results you get, Science is always right because there's more than one way to get to the answers.

In the same textboioks though, they then make a point to compare Science against Religion and how Science is better than Religion because Science uses evidence and facts and Religion uses dogma and belief to arrive at their results.

It doesn't matter that Science and Religion aren't mutually exclusive and that they are each set up to answer different questions.  No, they aren't interested in that kind of truth. 

It's also interesting that now they heavily emphasize that science searches for "natural" solutions and answers and does not take the "supernatural" into consideration.  They then go on to say though that scientist's must be objective and keep an open mind.

It must hurt to be that intellectually constipated.

Parents, you MUST pay attention to what your kids are being taught in schools.  They are making blatant efforts at passing off intellectual dishonesty as truth to students and "the system" is full force behind it.
