SCIENCE AND THE LEFT
27th April 2008
I’ve always wondered how regressives could claim to have some exclusive dedication to rationality and science and yet embrace some of the New Age bullshit that they do. Consider somebody with crystals hanging from their rearview mirror who reads the daily horoscope and gets a Tarot reading at life’s crisis points. Guess whether this person’s political views are “left” or “right”. The question answers itself.
Party of Science? Well, I suppose, for sufficiently flaky definitions of “science”.
