It's like a circle. If you use the area of a circle to represent what you know, the more you know, the larger the area of the circle will be. Beyond the circumference is an unknown area. The larger the area and the larger the perimeter, the more unknown areas we contact. This example was put forward by the ancient Greek philosopher Zhi Nuo.
In the era of classical mechanics, people think that physics has reached its limit and there are no unsolvable problems. At this time, two dark clouds floated in the sky, but scientists found that they had no power to solve it. Because the existing theory has reached the limit, with the germination of new ideas, quantum mechanics and relativistic mechanics were born.
Some people say: "The end of science is theology. When scientists reached the summit, they found that theologians were already waiting there. "
These remarks are all thoughtless, and they are all used by the gods to fool the ignorant masses. They are pure nonsense. The only function of theology is to act as a placebo for the mind. These ideas divorced from objective reality are all dross. Science has never been a question of belief or unbelief. Science pays attention to facts and evidence. What consciousness determines everything, and the world is created by God, these are unrealistic imaginations in the brain. Nowadays, few scientists believe in God.
Every time after the progress and development of human world outlook, there are always some buffoons who jump out and say something ignorant. Before, human beings always thought they were special, and the earth was also special. Later, they found that the earth is just a dot in the universe, and human beings were not created by God. When the big bang theory became the mainstream view, some people jumped out and claimed that the universe exploded under the will of God. Do you find it ridiculous?
It is impossible to know everything in a limited life, so some people go astray and want to take shortcuts. There is no prophet in this world, no one is perfect, there will always be some incomprehensible problems, and there will always be regrets. The only thing we have to do is to keep exploring in a scientific way. It is impossible to eat a fat man in one bite. The road to scientific development has always been arduous.
Scientific knowledge comes from nature, not from the brain. Personal cognition is always more or less biased and misunderstood. Believe it or not, the laws of nature (or science) will not change with your will. Science and technology is the application of scientific knowledge in the real world. What is the use of theology?
Although scientific knowledge is only one aspect of all knowledge, it is the most important and complicated, mainly because it is highly reliable and can stand the test of time and practice. Even extraterrestrial intelligent life, they are connected with our scientific knowledge.
Chairman Mao once said that people who dig wells should never forget to drink water. Enjoy the comfort brought by scientific and technological progress, but brag about some illusory things. Do you believe it or not? Can it make your life better?
It can be seen that most people who claim that science has an end have ulterior motives. For example, in order to illustrate the superiority and importance of philosophy, some people say that "philosophy is the mother of science, and the end point of science is philosophy". However, these arguments are nonsense. Science has no end, and scientists will never lose their jobs.
