First post, been ranting on a comment and thought it was worth a thread. “Trust the Science” “Trust in God” are these opposites? Spanish flu, AIDS, covid, and now monkey pox. What role does God play in man mad diseases and artificial floods?

As a preface I’ll say I’m biased and deeply religious; raised middle class, catholic school after colombine freaked my parents out, very wealthy middle school/highschool that my parents slaved to move and afford, average state college. hated catholicism and pagan rituals involved and turned to atheism, occult, satanism as an edgy teenager. found God as a terrified lil pussy after pizzagate which led me to Trump, Q, reading the bible and forming my own relationship with God and Jesus.

ANYWAYS…my upbringing was privileged. God blessed me with good parents who wanted the best. My ms/hs was top 10 in NY and of course we had state textbooks, tests, curriculum. a rich college town so most kids were headed to ivy leagues or other nepotism

BUT amidst all the brain washing the focus was on critical thought. questioning. asking why or who or when? granted I am RETARDED. not on meds so not focused in class, college courses, or any shit. was it because most of my peers were smart rich ivy league kids? it was a nice school and had almost 30% male teachers but it wasn’t like it was based.

ignoring hs I also went to a basic ass liberal arts state school that taught 70% women (teaching grads) for an environment degree. I know guys Imma fagit but it was a rapidly growing field (later found the secret was crime :/). but there too a shocking amount of school was about disinfo.

conservatives in general have shot themselves in the foot by despising environmentalism. most of my college classes were dominated by country kids who love God and his earth, want to fish and hunt, and know better than any hippie kid how to survive and be a responsible steward over nature.

despite 95% of classes being propaganda and new age shit. we had entire classes about the dangers of “scientism” and it’s place as the new world religion.

“Scientism” was our replacement for God. Scientist are the new saints. we take their educated guesses for laws. even when looking back so many were wrong or caused harm. we know this and discussed it after most of our classes. even liberal godless zombies reminded everyone the lessons were on “THEORIES”

“science” theories by men are our new pagan laws. the priests like fauci or freud or neil de grasse tyson or whoever the fuck are our new saints. we take their word as law, as if they can save us, or know unknowable things. Scientism replacing God. in subtle ways.

my point is even if it was minimal, colleges DO warn about this. or mine did. is that just my experience in upper middle class education? is that why I as a ~30 y/o had this criticism much like class prayer or gun safety corrupted and stolen from kids now?

just wondering if others had the same or different education based on class or location before standardized shit. where is God in the classroom and within science worship. is our future safer there or are children more at risk isolated at home being taught hard truths and told to question everything?
