"How did the Narrative switch places? The religious "praise jesus" types used to be cringe and the science guys were rational and level headed.
Now the science guys are fucking I fucking love science spergs, and the most rational and level headed people are the religious types.

What happened in the Narrative for this to happen? Is the free will and the consciousness powerful enough to destroy the Narrative, so that even in the furthest reaches of the mind, we can still sew how simplistic of a tool science is?"

They're basicly the same kind of people. They have a herd-mentality and slave morals. Scientism is basicly a devotional ideology, akin to modern Christianity. They do not "know" anything, but rather, they have certainties, i.e. they hold that certain propositions are logically immune to doubt. In the case of the "rational" science type, this is, most importantly, doctrines that espouse materialism, progress and evolution. They do not know anything about the actual natural laws, about physics, nor biology. They cannot tell you how life has emerged when asked. They will simply refer to authority; they yell "we believe the experts", as if that is some kind of solid epistemic proof for your beliefs (it isn't). Similarly, religious types tend to refer to their priest, imam, or whatever external body of knowledge they believe to valid and justified to believe in. But at the end of the day, they are people who are in a deep psychic sleep, unaware that they are themselves bodies governed by external events that act in an entirely mechanical fashion.

Sad. But this is the human conditions. Best is not to be bothered by both. Take this with lighthearted wisdom, OP.
