Episode notes
Scientism as Absolute Knowledge
- Scientism equates science with absolute knowledge, claiming all other disciplines must conform to it or are invalid.
- This modern worldview embeds itself deeply in society, making alternative epistemologies hard to consider.
The "Magic Circle" of Inquiry
- Technocratic elites control society by limiting permissible questions to a closed 'magic circle'.
- This suppresses inquiry into the foundations and validity of science itself, preserving scientific orthodoxy.
Technology Without Moral Framework
- Technology risks escaping moral control when detached from philosophical and theological ethics.
- This leads to unchecked developments driven by capability rather than virtue or divine purpose.
