Imagine still using the phrase “conspiracy theorist” as a pejorative after the events of the last three years. That’s like making fun of Noah for building the ark AFTER the flood already proved him right.

"All of this is by way of saying that we have never been modern. Our elaborate scientific theories only explain a tiny fraction of our existence and they do it “through a glass darkly.” More than a little bit of humility is in order. We should absolutely ridicule the “Because Science™️!” people (Peter Hotez, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Paul Offit, Brandy Zadrozny, etc.) because they have no idea what they are talking about and are not doing science at all. We must be conscious of the contributions to knowledge that can come from spirituality, parenting, lived experience, nature, meditation, prayer, philosophy, art, and intuition. And we must create space for better science to replace the mainstream junk science that has surrounded us our whole lives."
