Organize to End Bias in Science

Has science taken a wrong turn? If so, what corrections are needed? Chronicles of scientific misbehavior. The role of heretic-pioneers and forbidden questions in the sciences. Is peer review working? The perverse "consensus of leading scientists." Good public relations versus good science.

Organize to End Bias in Science

Post by Lloyd » Sat May 03, 2008 11:21 am

- A few months ago I proposed that anyone interested join forces to organize to help end bias in science and thus open science up to progressive theories like Electric-Plasma Universe theories. Now I have a convenient place to do that at http://linc.lefora.com/2008/05/03/end-bias-science and http://linc.lefora.com/forum/category/science/page1 . It's very convenient in that anyone can post there without registering or signing in and posts can be organized in various ways.
- One thing we could start with is to post evidence of bias, or unsound reasoning, in conventional science.
- Ralph Juergens had an excellent method for rating theories. See http://www.kronia.com/library/electrical1.html toward the bottom of the webpage, where it says Table 1. Competence of Various Sinuous Rille Theories.
- I think we should try to use that pattern, which requires a bit of analysis of various theories, according to the major features of observed phenomena on which theories are based.
- Please click on the first link above and post any comment you want. That will help break the ice.

The links failed. Maybe the posts are too old?

I'm (retired) and considering communal (intentional community) living.
Couldn't this concept be applied in the scientific community?
Where families could live in a community among interdisciplinary researchers. I have retired but I have not stopped researching. If you consider retiring what kind of life would be tailored for you?
If more interdisciplinary associations spring up globally and meet or communicate on a regular basis then I think much of the bias would end.

Perhaps, more applied laboratory science and engineering (hands on) is needed as opposed to more theories and huge funding grants from institutions? "Intentional" Communal living and research should be considered, in my opinion.

LOVE & Peace
