SCIENCE EVOLVED INTO THE UNIVERSAL LANGAUGE OF TRUTH TELLING

Through trial and error, we have learned, that science evolved the language of truth-telling as a branch of common empirical law. We use the language of science – the language of testimony – not because it contains the most information, but because it contains the least false information. Because the function of the process and language of science, like the process and language of law, is the removal of error, bias, wishful thinking, suggestion, loading, overloading, pseudoscience, rationalism, mysticism, and deceit. The international language of truth telling is science. And so we have to ask ourselves, whether, when we desire to communicate in fantasy religion, fantasy literature, fantasy philosophy, why is it that we prefer to?

We study Aristotelianism (Western Philosophy) because it is an extension of empirical western law, that resulted in empirical, testimonial, western science.

We can study philosophy as a fantasy moral literature. We can study philosophy as a rational religion of aspirations. We can study it as pre-scientific method of inquiry. or we can study it as scientific means of speaking truthfully (meaning parsimoniously).

At present most of us study it for the latter reason. But it’s true that some people still study it as fantasy moral literature, rational religion, and pre-scientific, rational inquiry.

I have never found an objection to science over philosophy that wasn’t reducible to an attempt to preserve the illusion of fantasy moral literature.
