>Five Pseudo Science Theories

Posted by Barrie on December 7, 2010

>I have discussed various topics on this blog. In this post, let’s take a look at the five pseudo science theories that have been discussed on this site.

Number 5 – You are sick in the head because some “experts” tell you so

Here is a post I made last month – Multi-Billion Dollar Psychiatric Drug Industry is coming to getcha!

In the post above, take a look at how even everyday emotions are considered as “madness”, so that you can be put on drugs.

Again, don’t get me wrong. There are psychiatric patients who do need medication out there. But it appears that every “expert” appears to be saying that you have some kind of sickness. Especially “experts” dealing with schoolchildren. These include teachers, counselors and even psychologists.

In the meantime, the greedy drug industry capitalizes on your ignorance and deceive you into believing that the cure for all these “mental sickness” is drugs, drugs and more drugs.

The tests for mental sickness is nothing more than an “assessment test” and not a clinical one. There’s no blood sample or any other such tests. Just a pure judgement by some “expert”.

Note that in the link above, I gave another link that shows psychiatrists from the American Psychiatric Association (APA) voted mental diseases into existence! Isn’t that pseudo science?

Number 4 – Homosexuality is hard-wired

For all the claims LGBTs make that homosexuality is hard-wired, the medical world has never confirmed that. Yet, the LGBT community keeps saying that there is scientific proof.

Most citation (quoted by the LGBT community to argue homo is hard wired) are from studies made by individual parties. These are mostly academic studies fit for a good thesis for the university students doing his Masters or PhD. There are no scientific tests to show its validity. More importantly, the medical world does not recognise the theory that homosexuality is hard-wired as a medical fact.

It is also interesting to note that APA, the organisation that keeps voting mental sicknesses into existence, also voted homosexuality out of the sickness list! Since when do doctors vote a sickness in or out as a disease? Again, isn’t this pseudo science?

Number 3 – Global Warming

I have been putting up links the past few days to show that the world is cooling and not warming. Global warmists insist that cooling is part of the warming process. Really?

The earth’s climate changes all the time. That includes the global temperature. How do we know that the warming is not part of the change process?

In spite of the evidence that the Earth has been cooling the last few years, global warmists insist that the Earth is still warming up. They give all kinds of data – except being able to link that carbon, methane and what other stuff give rise to global temperature increase.

But there are no tests done to show that these substances can cause global warming. Just because some wise cracks say so, it becomes “science”. Isn’t that pseudo science?

Number 2 – Evolution

I love this one. Evolutionists claim that evolution is science because it is taught in schools. Well, many schools around the world taught (and still teach), god exists. So the existence of god is science? See the pseudo science in evolutionists’ argument now?

Until today, there is no scientific proof that one species is able to evolve into another species. Yet, evolutionists go round telling the world that evidence of evolution exists! We have fossils, different species and what not. But that isn’t evidence that evolution exists. Where is the link to show that just because we have fossils, evolution exists?

Take a look at the pseudo scientific arguments (especially the comments section) in this post.

And the Number One pseudo science discussed in this blog is….(drum roll)…..

Number 1 – Dichotomy of Science and Religion

Pseudo scientists are a laughing stock. They say that you can’t prove a negative, which means you can’t prove that God does not exist. Then the next thing they do is to try to prove that God does not exist!

If you think carefully, isn’t it easier to argue the existence of an intelligent designer of this universe, than to argue that chance is the cause? Again, take a look at the comments section and see the indefensible idea that orderliness can arise out of disorderliness here.
Creation vs Evolution Part 4 – The Law of Probability

These same pseudo scientists also claim that science and religion are two exclusive theories, such that if one exists, the other doesn’t. But in the link above, have I not used science (in this case the Mathematics of Probability) to argue the existence of an Intelligent Designer?

But the above arguments are just on paper. It is an academic discussion. What about real life application to show that religion and science can go hand in hand? One of the biggest proof that they can co-exist is the Golden Age of Islam. From this era, we can see that religion and the sciences flourished.

So there you have it. The Number One Pseudo Science theory discussed on this blog is the atheistic belief that religion and science are dichotomies, and that you cannot use science to argue that there exists an intelligent designer.
