After the collapse of Anthropogenic Global Warming, which will be the next fortress to fall, the next to collapse among academic disciplines constructed to "prove" highly politicised presuppositions, so that they cannot come to any other conclusion, and no one who doubts that conclusion can ever have any part in the peer review process?
I can think of a few: population control, almost all economics at least as taught to Sixth Formers and undergraduates or given media attention (the "free" market), the organisation of political science on a spectrum devised by Continental Marxists and not really applicable in practice even to their own countries, the entire sex education industry going back to Kinsey and his gang of psychopaths, embryonic stem cell "research", the historiography of science assumed by the likes of Richard Dawkins, Biblical criticism, its underlying liberal theology, and that theology's underlying concept of the rational or empirical method as somehow existing apart from Augustinian illuminism as a whole, to name but a few.
So, once all of those practitioners are out on their ears, what should we do with vast sums of money saved, and why?

ReplyDeleteWell, paragraph-long sentences were good enough for Ruskin, so I suppose they should be good enough for any socialist Tory...
