A discussion with @snapshotsmith about "Determinism" and scientific truth reminded me that the gap between science and #Scientism is wide.
Incidentally a close friend sent me the paper below on Rosennean Complecity by #Siekmann. Section 5 lists the 3 commandments of modelling in #science ... that's Lie, Cheat and Steal. That's at least honest.

It's really curious... I post something about the connections between #math and #magic, between #Science and #Esotericism, between #BeliefSystems in #technology and #religion, and it's unlikely that people react to my post.
Let's face it, if thinking about the history of #CommonSense and science amounts to #heresy then it's #scientism.
New vid essay from Dr. Abdurrahman just dropped:
"The boring kind of degeneracy."
"What I find fantastic is any notion that there are answers beyond the realm of science. The answers are there. You just have to know where to look."
