(PainfulDiscoveries)
Solving the archaic problem of ‘truth’ by studying human ignorance, error, bias, and especially deceit – honestly wasn’t fun. Instead it was depressing. A journey through the mental sewers of mankind. But however complex the problem the solution is simple.

So, the ‘scary’ aspect of all theoretical advances, lies in the results of the discovery of what ‘techniques, methods, and biases’ result in half-true and ultimately harmful theories. And the origin is .. uncomfortable.

d) My point being that there is a difference between imprecise ideas and half-true ideas that contain falsehoods that prohibit evolution of knowledge.
The most famous being Jewish religion + Greek reason, the synthesis producing the abrahamic religions and vast ignorance.

So I mean, I’m not so much criticizing the man as criticizing mankind for failure to complete the transition from verbal to operational thought across the spectrum of disciplines. In fact, I would call it the worst cognitive error in history after the invention of fundamentalism.

“Half Good Ideas Are Worse Than Bad”
(Because it’s cheaper and easier to falsify a purely bad idea than it is a half-good idea,and more so when we desperately want to believe the half-good idea.)

The reasons are 1. that all mathematics is statistical(reductive). 2. that mathematical reducibility (descriptive) is smaller that computational (operational) reducibility. 3. That mathematical models without operational models to falsify prohibits subsequent discovery.

Well, that’s a good idea.
1. Absolutism vs Pragmatism vs Relativism
2. Falsification vs Justification
3. Constructive Proofs vs Deductive Proofs vs Inductive Possibilities.

Just as sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic, sufficiently advanced knowledge is indistinguishable from madness – at least by the room-temperature-IQ, Nitwit. and Midwit demographics. 😉
