    I’d say there’s a big difference.

    The relevant medical science is obscured behind a veil of esoterica and complexity (not to mention patent law). That other stuff, not so much.

    Thus in the case of the former we are forced to rely upon an inscrutable priesthood.

    Whereas the latter, not so much.

      Just because you cannot understand something does not make it false lmfao.

      Complex things are complex. Some of them cannot be dumbed down. It’s the entire, literal point, to civilization. Specialization.

      And of all the things you want to complain about not knowing, is medications? So many of the metabolic pathways are heavily described and detailed. Very little of it requires intricate knowledge of biomechanica or biochemistry.

      The rest of it is LITERALLY missing link versions of what people classically know about evolution. We know

      A >>>> G

      That doesn’t mean magic happens between B, C, D, E, and F. It means biology is fucking stupid because evolution at it’s core is based on entropy lol. It takes forever to learn why and what stupid mechanics do what.
