7. Fuck theories, I said nothing about scientific "theory". "Scientists" are often the most arrogant.

I think you and I are talking about different things.

We haven't risen to the level of collective intelligence required to understand that science obeys nature's laws.

I could have been more careful with my choice of words.

I should have said that whatever we do, our technology and choices will have consequences that obey the laws of nature; physical, chemical, biological laws and all the rest.

They exist without scientists and, indeed, without the study of them (science).
