Most who claim to advocate ‘truth’ and ‘science’ actually promote establishment-biased closed-mindedness. The illiberal, aggressive élite are the monotheistic, monolithic clergy of our age: perception-reality dualists, contemptuous of that which is directly evident or readily inferred therefrom, transparently careerists in stagnant, ossified secret societies, loving their social connections and official positions far more than truth. It is–can any doubt it?–against this secular rabbinical priestcraft that Thomas Jefferson swore ‘eternal hostility’ since, in the employ of the rich, they constitute an incomparable ‘tyranny over the mind of man’.
