  • dismiss any information merely because it emanates from a source they disfavor is the epitome of liberalism

    But there are sources that we’d doubt more, right?

    In this case, I think the info is decent, since other sources say similar stuff and it makes sense withp previous info/experience.

    Not related to science news, but I’m careful of sources with a right-wing bias in the context of general news. I’ve had experiences where they had exaggerated or twisted news. Not that left-wing sources are totally free of it, but it the scale n frequency in exaggeration seems different. And it often gets criticises by left-wing people too.

    So, I am more careful of those rightwing sources. Am I a liberal because of that?














  • Islam used to be the forefront of scientific and mathematical discovery.

    People of all religions have contributed to scientific growth.

    The average religious person and the person discovering scientific/mathematical stuff are generally different tho.
    Universal basic education has gained focus in many parts of the world, only relatively recently.

    I think improved scientific temper would obviously clash with many mainstresm religions.

    Presence of some supreme creator may not be proven or disproven, but I think the anti-evolution stuff and similar things in most mainstream religions would face more questions when scientific temper improves.

    And I’m not saying that non-religious people are safe from similar stuff too. Just that it is easily spread and maintained when you have a community on it.
