Also, I want you to notice that institutionally, science is indoctrination, pretty much like religion. Children are—in fact, this is a factual

statement—children are, in fact, indoctrinated into science for 12 years, and then even more if they go to university.

Why do I say 'indoctrinated'? Is this a slur? No, this is an accurate, factual statement because, in fact,

children are not taught epistemology, or metaphysics, or alternative worldviews, or alternative methodologies in school.

For the first 12 years that they're growing up, they're not taught this at all. They're not taught philosophy;

they're not taught different ways of looking at the world. None of these—none of these things are ever mentioned. Science is learned by

children through brute rote memorization. Do you remember science tests—chemistry, biology, physics, whatever other science you took? All of

it was just blind memorization. You didn't derive a single biological fact; you didn't derive a single physical fact;

you didn't derive a single chemical fact. And even those few uh experiments that your chemistry teacher might have forced you

to do while you were just, you know, probably laughing with your friends around you, you were just like

writing numbers down, you know, making numbers up while you're doing the—doing those experiments. You

weren't actually thinking about anything while you were doing those experiments. You didn't actually do any real science.

There—you didn't actually validate anything or invalidate anything; you didn't test anything. You were just following instructions. Even when the

chemistry teacher told you to do the experiment, he or she gave you a list of steps to follow, an exact method, and you

just followed it like a blind monkey. That's what you did, and you generated exactly the kind of results

that he wanted you to generate; you weren't seriously testing anything, so truly you were indoctrinated into

science, exactly like a Muslim is indoctrinated into Islam in an Islamic madrasa, a religious school.

You know, they will beat Muslim children with sticks in madrasas, forcing them to memorize the Quran word

for word, the entire Quran. Well, that's essentially what happened to you in the West when you were learning science in school.

They did this to you for 12 years, and you don't even know that they did this to you. You just assumed that this is how

it is, and you took it for reality. This is highly significant. You might say, 'Leo, but why does this matter? This is not

important.' Isn't education good? It's highly significant to the point that I'm making because your first 12

years of development, you know, from age 6 to, let's say, 18, these are the most formative years of

your mind; your entire sense-making apparatus, your ego mind, is formed during this time. If you give me 12 years

to indoctrinate a child into anything I want, I can make that child believe anything for the rest of his life.

He'll believe that it's real and true. This is imprinting of the mind. Do not underestimate the significance of

this indoctrination; it's utterly, radically profound. Your entire world, you are shaped by this.

You are virtually incapable of thinking outside of this worldview. You were indoctrinated with materialism, realism,

objectivism, rationalism, skepticism, whatever other 'isms,' and you're not smart enough to think

outside of this. This is the operating system that you are now using to make sense of the things that I'm telling you; every word

Coming out of my mouth is being run through that operating system and being corrupted by all of the faulty

assumptions, metaphysical and epistemological and mythological, within that system that you were indoctrinated with that you

never questioned. And if you don't think that's a significant problem, you're kidding yourself. As you were learning science, you have

never, ever validated the scientific method itself. You never—it never even crossed your mind to test it; never, never.

And as you went to university, it never even crossed your mind to test it because you were too busy cramming for

tests, drinking beer with your buddies, smoking weed, going to parties, and just barely struggling to maintain your grades.

That's what you were doing. You weren't doing a serious investigation of anything true or real. You never gave a damn about reality or

truth ever in your entire educational career. It was all memorization and belief, and of course, now you have to hope—you

have to hope it was all true because as soon as you start to realize that some of it wasn't true, well, that

that sows little seeds of doubt which are going to grow and grow and grow until the whole thing collapses.

See, if you allow me, I can easily design a school curriculum that will teach students false science. I can invent

a system equivalent to science which is completely false, and I can teach it to children for 12

years, and they will become so convinced of it by the end of those 12 years that they will be utterly irredeemable for the

rest of their lives; the majority of them. You will never be able to convince them of an alternative system.

That's the power of imprinting on a young mind. And guess what? It's happened to you. See, all this time you were laughing,

thinking it happened to somebody else, to those crazy religious people, to those Mormons, to those Scientologists, to those

Muslims, to those Evangelicals. It happened to you. It just happened in a scientific way; that doesn't mean it's true.

That's just an alternative worldview, you

How You Were Indoctrinated Into Scientific Materialism

Science education is presented similarly to religious indoctrination.

Children undergo 12 years of science education, often continuing in university.

This is considered indoctrination due to the lack of alternative worldviews or methodologies.

Children are not taught epistemology, metaphysics, or philosophy.

Learning is based on rote memorization rather than critical thinking or experimentation.

The formative years (ages 6-18) are crucial for shaping the mind's sense-making apparatus.

Twelve years of indoctrination can shape a child's beliefs for life.

This imprinting is profound and shapes one's worldview.

Indoctrination includes materialism, realism, objectivism, rationalism, and skepticism.

The scientific method itself is not validated or questioned during education.

Education focuses on memorization and belief, not critical examination of truth or reality.

Doubting the learned information can lead to a collapse of the belief system.

It's possible to create a false scientific system and indoctrinate children into believing it.

This indoctrination applies to everyone, not just those in religious groups.
