No, fake science is no good for anything. It slows down any real progress, creates a nation of gullible idiots when it comes to scientific literacy, and is fast becoming a set of new religions.
Fundamentalist UFOist. Bleh.
The definition of pseudoscience; a system of theories, assumptions, and methods erroneously regarded as scientific. I do not see anything in the description that uses the word fake. Pseudoscience may not be mainstream science, however I do not know if I would say it is fake science. All things have some exact science and can be measured, regardless of weather they are considered to be real or fantasy.
When you have a dream is it real or is it fantasy or both? Most theories aren't considered to be scientific fact until proven.
The word pseudo: being apparently rather than actually as stated, could imply an illusion with some ground in reality yet not exactly as advertised.
Nothing in life is what it seems. This is a true statement because Life is only relative to the observer. If two people experience the same thing you will most likely get two different accounts of the experience. If you say something is relative I would say wait a million years and it wont be.
The mind tells each individual what is relative and what is not. Every day we are bombarded by the Media and all that it stipulates. We are told Irac has weapons of mass destruction and that we should go to War. The war in Irac is in fact is a pseudowar. it is not at all what it was advertised to be. I forecast the next war to be with Iran the pseudowar Media campaign has already begun.
Is it necessary for the U.S. Government to brainwash the people of the world into their specific agenda? Is this needed to obtain world peace? If all people have different views of reality can they be unified by manipulation via the Media? I would say yes, it is necessary, for if the thoughts of the public are not controlled, then individualism will lead to anarchy. People would much rather be followers than leaders.
When I look at the world with my abstruse brain I have to remember that I live in a world of Human Sheep and I have separated from the flock. I do work at processing thought independent of mainstream belief. How can one invent without thinking unlike others.
So when you say conform to excepted mainstream belief i.e. Science or Religion I would only go as far as to study them and I would not in all cases believe everything as the truth. What I am trying to say is there is a degree of pseudo in everything in life.
Nothing on Earth will exist 15 Billion years from now, When all we know no longer exists, was it a Dream? Energy and Matter are yet to be understood, we know a little, we have allot to learn.
Is there ETI? According to the Drake equation there is, and I for one would tend to agree with him. Are there UFO's? Yes I have witnessed them, are they from another world, other than the Earth? I do not know.
