Scientism 2

Oh hated word! anathema of the postmodernist! aspersion of the ivory-towered, multi-degreed, and ever-so-sensitive politically correct intelligentsia! hated heresy of the creationist and all the religious righteous: "the false doctrine of scientism"!
I love you.

All evil springs from irrationality. All good arises from reason and science. Yet the beauty Reason and her lovely daughter, Science, go wandering the streets like beggars, while people bend their ears to every silly idea and bloody old book.

I will give Reason and Science a firm and lofty place, from which all people will see them and hear their sweet voice. I will give them a home: in my heart, on this blog, and in the public square.

Theistic religion teaches circumcision, spanking, sexual abstinence, and a host of other heinous evils; while freethought (atheism, humanism, etc.) teaches what is good for humanity. Why do we allow children to be taught religion?

The only religion we need is Scientism.
