Fuller, ID, self-organization, and the Paradigm (deadbeats)

Posted in Evolution, Science at 5:55 pm by nemo

Panda’s Thumb takes on Steve Fuller: Fuller’s critique of science is difficult to put in context because it is part of a generation of science studies which haven’t made it into the public domain. Thus his views out of that context can sometimes seem odd. In fact, I am not a defender or critic of Fuller, in part because the background to his works is not easily accessible. But the more general point is clear, and has been clear since the time of Kant: scientific methodology has a series of faultlines going down the middle of scientific Shangri La. And there is no more obvious case of this than that of the status of Darwinism in science. Fuller should have stayed neutral on the ID question, but his critique of scientific methodology can’t be rejected out of hand. The brouhaha over postmodernism and its confusions has disguised the equal confusions in the mainstream methodologists, if they could be called that. That can be seen in the use of Popper as a crutch, yet Popper stands at the fountainhead of the surge of methodological craziness that came in his wake.

Meanwhile PT takes a swipe at the Altenberg 16, the typical bureaucratic response of the Darwin establishment.
In fact, the Altenberg group seems like a bunch of deadbeats and showed themselves unable or unwilling to avail themselves of an opportunity.
The same can be said of S. J. Gould. People have known for a long time that the Darwin hype machine is little more than a public cover story, so why not say so?
This question has had a journalist, Susan Mazur from Scoop in New Zealand, trying to prompt the issues, but evidently to no avail.

Biologists are out of time here. I hold them responsible for the ID movement’s rising to fill the void of their irresponsible indulgence in Darwin propaganda.

In any case, the Altenberg group is perhaps paralyzed because they don’t go far enough, and are intimidated even with their relatively weak take on ‘self-organization’. But at least that much is enough to open the public discussion to some honest evaluation of the Darwin paradigm.

The significance of this conference is that it occurred at all, and its portent of the weakness/failure of Neo-Darwinism.
The spin that will be put on it notwithstanding.

Atheism, creationism: Neither should rule the day

Atheism, creationism: Neither should rule the day

Although the Constitution does call for a separation of church and state, it does not give one belief system prominence over another.

Also, modern thought patterns coming from atheistic writers such as Richard Dawkins pushes the idea that government should have nothing to do with religion, and that all public displays of religious ceremony and assembly, even peaceful ones, should be banned in an effort to create a secular society.

Thus, atheism becomes the influence in government. A religion is simply replaced by a belief system (atheism).

Beliefnet Waldman on Palin

What Kind of Christian is Palin?
Sunday August 31, 2008
posted by Steve Waldman @ 1:06pm
The always-shrewd Jeff Weiss at the Dallas Morning Newsy characterizes her as a post-denominational Christian.

Doug Weed, a Bush friend, notes that Palin not only helps with evangelicals but with Pentecostals in particular, who have been especially cool to McCain.

He also raises a very good political point: if Democrats start attacking her as a Creationist yokel, it will un-do much of Obama’s faith outreach. In fact, this is almost inevitable that some liberal bloggers will do just that and the Republicans will gather up every one of those Christian-mocking quotes to prove that the Republicans respect them and Democrats don’t. For Obama to avoid this fate, he’s probably going to do a Sister Souljah on those Democrats who mock Palin, specifically coming to her defense on matters of faith.

Horgan and the ‘end of science’

Posted in Evolution, History, Science, The Eonic Effect at 7:58 pm by nemo

Looking Back at the End of Science

More than a decade after its original publication, does the prophecy of a controversial book still ring true? By John Horgan

Since we have invoked the ‘end of science’ in the previous post, it’s worth reading Horgan’s recent essay on the subject. Horgan is someone I have always been wary of, even if I don’t take his thesis at face value, because he stumbled on something, without quite being able to put his finger on it (as did Spengler, who was one of the progenitors of the ‘end of science’ theme). I hesitate to endorse any thesis about the far future, with an implicit prediction (ironically, in its name, Fukuyama’s ‘end of history’ thesis is similar in that regard) about short-term taken as long-term futures.

A good example can be seen by looking at science in antiquity: the great advances in science in the Axial Age waned, and soon an ‘end of science’ became a very real fact of history. The short-term future after the Axial Age. The problem can be seen with Archimedes: the future beyond the ‘end of science’ was within his grasp, the calculus, but that future slipped away–into the far future.
One often gets a similar feeling about string theory… but who knows.

The point here more directly is that Horgan is stuck in Darwinism, and thinks natural selection one of the great advances in science! It seems there is a much more pedestrian meaning to the ‘end of science’: scientists are simply unable to do good science on the subject of evolution, which came to an end with Darwin (so to speak).
The reason is that a whole new conception of what science is is required to pass beyond reductionist biology, and quite possibly that will simply not happen. The general culture is already moving regressively away from science into religion, in part because science is so incompetent at cultural questions, very much related to questions of evolution. I certainly don’t see that as the right response to science, religion, but simply take that as an omen of the ‘cultural clutching at straws’ as this peculiar ‘other end of science’ plays itself out.

In fact, although it shouldn’t be called that, the ‘end of science’, most ironically and invisibly, occurred in the Enlightenment, the great champion of science, and its first dialectical child, the Romantic movement, as the limits of science became a topic of philosophy, witness the critiques of Kant, and his very simple remedies for that situation.
In the wake of this larger enlightenment general modern culture simply played the trumpet of scientism, witness the post-Hegelian era of Feuerbach’s generation, and the onset of the positivistic age. Evolution became an orphan in that era, and we are still frozen in place in that generation’s shifting gears.

But the ‘end of science’ in this sense is coming! As the current generation of scientists stands by in incomprehension. If you that incompetent, you’re fired. bye.

Be advised!

Neo-Darwinism is dead & a deadly weapon against Darwinists

Posted in Critique of Evolutionary Economy, Evolution at 7:14 pm by nemo

Counterpunch reprints Newman interview

The question of evolution has reached a turning point, and the Alternberg conference, and now a public statement by Stuart Newman, has produced a public whisper of this transition.

The problem is that the entire scientific community is oblivious to their situation, and its perilous judgment on science, should scientists once again simply try to ride out the onset of dissent, feeble and marginalized as it is.

In the endless science prattle at Scienceblogs over science trivia, not a single blogger has addressed any of this.

And the same is true on the left, since Newman is, I believe, a liberal/leftist (?) [correct me here?], and the reprint at Counterpunch no accident. It is time for the left to grasp their liability here, over a century of Darwin confusion, given nonetheless Marx’s instant (later suppressed) rejection of Darwinism as ideology. We need, amidst this paradigm transition, to be done with Darwin apologetics on the so-called ‘left’. Let’s forget such leftists.

The left apart (they have lost an immense opportunity for guidance here in the expose of ideology), the general liberal culture (using the word ‘liberal’ in almost a cultural rather than a political sense) needs to reinvent itself beyond the Dawkins generation which has delayed change here for that entire generation. As S. J. Gould sensed, but didn’t have the gumption or insight to really get straight, and declared decades ago, Neo-Darwinism is dead.

No more pussyfooting around here. We need to bypass the phonies at Sciencebloggers, and their type, along with the orgs like NCSE which are constantly putting on the brakes, and move on, past the Scylla and Charybdis of religious conservatives, and science technocrats/economic ideologists.

Darwinism is and always was a social ideology promoted by economic elites. The failure of the left to see this is their disgrace.
We need a new social philosophy of liberal/left culture that can shake loose from this archaic nineteenth century corpse of theory.

It is very difficult to deal with the immense power of the Darwin propaganda machine. But those working for change here have a deadly weapon concealed in their weakness:

science itself is on the docket: if change can’t happen, and some kind of intelligent discourse appear, then a new version of the ‘end of science’ will inexorably appear.

The clock is ticking.

Posted in politics, Science at 6:25 pm by nemo

The Story

In November, 2007, a small group of six citizens – two screenwriters, a physicist, a marine biologist, a philosopher and a science journalist – began working to restore science and innovation to America’s political dialogue. They called themselves Science Debate 2008, and they called for a presidential debate on science. The call tapped a wellspring of concern over the state of American science.
Within weeks, more than 38,000 scientists, engineers, and other concerned Americans signed on, including nearly every major American science organization, dozens of Nobel laureates, elected officials and business leaders, and the presidents of over 100 major American universities. See who here. Among other things, these signers submitted over 3,400 questions they want the candidates for President to answer about science and the future of America.

Obama’s answers at the sight.
