The more scientific authorities there are, the less science becomes.

Some people think that Anthony Fauci is the target of their attacks. But they are actually attacking science. “These words were said only by Anthony Fauci himself. The head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, and the American and possibly global face of anti-Covid policy. Man his role and intentions became less transparent, and the bulk of his correspondence made its way to the media. It is no wonder, then, that he decided to appeal higher level, and became Louis XIV of our time, announcing his book “Science is I.” It is clear that Fauci can be harassed with impunity, but science (necessarily with a capital “N”) can only be attacked by crazy and uncivilized people.

Science, as defined by Anthony Fauci, also has its incarnations on the Vistula, but also its followers. At first glance, you can see that we are dealing here not with a scientific model, but with a religious one. A group of aphorisms with the facts of faith that can only be accepted or rejected. The first means joining the Church of Lights, while the second means becoming a heretic. With all the consequences that are becoming increasingly evident in recent times. Silencing the rioters and keeping skeptics and skeptics out of public life.

Science – at least as we know it so far – has nothing to do with the faith preached by Pope Antony or our local apostles of the new religion. It is a set of beliefs that are valid only on the condition that they are resistant to forgery; Facts that can only be believed insofar as they have been previously challenged. A space where heretics who ask questions and undermine dogmas are cherished. Because only thanks to them can knowledge and science – as a way of perceiving and dealing with the world – finally develop. Replacing this complex body, driven by the inner tension of uncertainty, with dead dogmas like discs is pure water myth. Belief based on intellectual laziness and mental limitations. Hence the fanaticism with which the realities of the new religion are defended. Because once you stop thinking rationally and critically and start being guided by the same emotions, it’s only a matter of time before they start to peak.
