DAVID BERLINSKI, FROM "THE DEVIL'S DELUSION": In 2007, a number of scientists gathered in a conference entitled "Beyond Belief: Science, Religion, Reason, and Survival" in order to attack religious thought and congratulate one another on their fearlessness in so doing. The physicist Steven Weinberg delivered an address. As one of the authors of the theory of electroweak unification, the work for which he was awarded a Nobel Prize, he is a figure of great stature. "Religion," he affirmed, "is an insult to human dignity. With or without it you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. BUT FOR GOOD PEOPLE TO DO EVIL THINGS, THAT TAKES RELIGION." (caps added). In speaking thus, Weinberg was warmly applauded, not one member of his audience asking the question one might have thought pertinent: Just who has imposed on the suffering human race poison gas, barbed wire, high explosives, experiments in eugenics, the formula for Zyklon B, heavy artillery, pseudo-scientific justifications for mass murder, cluster bombs, attack submarines, napalm, intercontinental ballistic missiles, military space platforms, and nuclear weapons? If memory serves, it was not the Vatican. END OF BERLINSKI QUOTE

@Zeke Bean They didn't operate on Christian principles whatsoever. They operated on the premise of biological evolution, that humans can be forced to evolve in certain paths and that it is not immoral to destroy humans who are not of the right breed or stock. Contrast that with the teachings of Jesus and there is no comparison. The Catholic Church has indeed committed atrocious deeds beyond comprehension throughout its history. However, it is not, and has never been, Christian. This can be seen by both looking at their origins as well as many of their doctrines and traditions which Catholic leadership has frequently and freely admitted go in complete opposition to the Bible's teachings. The Pope is considered (as evidenced by the Church's past statements and letters) another Christ on earth and even beyond, being completely infallible and able to rebuke God himself and change His laws at will. It is a religious continuation of the pagan state of Rome with many Babylonian, Medo-Persian and Roman pagan doctrines as core elements of the religion. They changed the Bible in certain key ways to support their doctrines, and repeatedly killed tens of thousands of actual Christians who held on to any different Bible version including the correct original translation. Many Catholic versions of the Bible today undermine the divinity and teachings of Jesus Christ and elevate man. The "Saints" are equivalent to pagan gods and are treated the same way as ancient pagan worshipers treated their gods. Catholics pray to certain Saints to get certain benefits in the Saints' area of dominion and even bury statues of whichever Saint they need help from (whether that be the saint of finance, love, revenge, etc.) Catholics universally worship Mary as the mediatrix between Jesus and man, casting Jesus as an unforgiving tyrant who can only be persuaded to help man by "seeing the breast which gave him suck, and his wrath shall be appeased." (St. Alphonsus Liguori). They are the single greatest pagan religion in the world all under a vague semblance of Christianity. See the book "Babylon Mystery Religion: Ancient and Modern" for a full analysis of where Roman Catholicism derives its doctrines and the many parallels it shares with old paganism.

I did research in pure mathematics- indecomposable modules over valuation rings- and hence can spot that he’s a pretentious fraud. There is one video on KZread where he attempts to discuss advanced mathematics- it’s a train-wreck of comedic proportions. Almost nothing he said- in reference to the Riemann Hypothesis- was correct. He waffled about the nature of “conjecture”, missing the the RH is a HYPOTHESIS- meaning, there’s a ton of work predicated on it being true. He identified it as a problem in “complex function theory”. Nonsense- it has huge implications for the distribution of the primes. It is a problem in number theory He dropped the fascinating nugget that poor tragic Riemann died at the same age as poor tragic Schubert- not even close to being true, but how almost painfully cultured he sounded. He then talked absolute drivel about the hypothesis- revealing that what he might once have known about “complex function theory” he’s long since forgotten (the RH can be understood by a second year undergrad- the stuff he’s forgotten is very very basic) He then babbled about “proofs that are being considered”- there are none. Were he an honest man, on being asked he’d have said- I’ve no idea, it way beyond me- but he’s not an honest man. In short- you’ve been duped. I’ve worked in mathematics at a far higher level that Berlinski and know that he’s a pretentious fraud. I’m not a mathematician. Neither is he.

Love Berlinski. He has some of the same insight GK Chesterton had 100 years ago... “Modern masters of science are much impressed with the need of beginning all inquiry with a fact. The ancient masters of religion were quite equally impressed with that necessity. They began with the fact of sin - a fact as practical as potatoes. Whether or no man could be washed in miraculous waters, there was no doubt at any rate that he wanted washing. But certain religious leaders in London, not mere materialists, have begun in our day not to deny the highly disputable water, but to deny the indisputable dirt. Certain new theologians dispute original sin, which is the only part of Christian theology which can really be proved. Some followers of the Reverend R. J. Campbell, in their almost too fastidious spirituality, admit divine sinlessness, which they cannot see even in their dreams. But they essentially deny human sin, which they can see in the street. The strongest saints and the strongest sceptics alike took positive evil as the starting-point of their argument. If it be true (as it certainly is) that a man can feel exquisite happiness in skinning a cat, then the religious philospher can only draw one of two deductions. He must either deny the existence of God, as all atheists do; or must deny the present union between God and man, as all Christians do. The new theologians seem to think it a highly rationalistic solution to deny the cat.”

As always, David Berlinski's interviews are invigorating. Lots of food for thought

@@su-mu his books are elementary, dreadful in their pompous narcissism, riddled with mistakes and out of print. I have only once seen him attempt to discuss advanced mathematics. It was a comedic train wreck of staggering ignorance and pretentious posturing. Asked his “opinion” of the Riemann Hypothesis his honest answer would have been “not a fucking clue. WAY beyond my grasp”….he is not honest however. We were treated to a pompous monologue about “conjecture” vs “theorem”. Something that could have been said clearly in 2 sentences. He missed the import of “hypothesis” entirely. He could have made, were he not too busy preening himself, the point that a large body of mathematics has been predicated on the RH being true…. “It’s a problem in complex function theory”. Wrong. It involves a complex function but it’s a problem in number theory- again no mention from the “mathematician” Berlinski. Then a slew of pompous horseshit about poor tragic Riemann dying at the same age as poor tragic Schubert! They didn’t (31=\=39) but how almost painfully cultured he sounds…. Then some nonsense about the upper half plane….WRONG the zeta function is defined everywhere except at 1. He’s half remembering some pop account of modular forms in the proof of Fermat- irrelevant and wrong. “The question is do the zeros line up on a pole or are they all over the place”….what the actual fuck is that? A pole is a POINT, not a line, where a function has a singularity. The first several thousand BILLION zeros are known to lie on the critical LINE re(z)=1/2. The rest are known to be within a narrow strip around the line. So what the flailing arm gestures illustrating “all over the place” were about is anyone’s guess. After this comical mess, for an encore he yammered on about proofs that are being examined…..ummmm….there are none. The last was Atiyah’s years ago and a flaw was found very quickly. Berlinski is a pretentious lying fraud and nothing more. If you’d like some actual mathematicians to listen to I can recommend many. But this academic failure will waste your time.

Dr Berlinski was my philosophy professor at San Jose State in the 80's and he was as gracious and sincere with a bunch of state school knuckle heads as he is with Ben. He dressed the same and carried himself the same way which suggests a solid, integral character.

Why is it that so often the defenders of this pretentious fraud start bleating about "ad hominems" as soon as the facts about David Berlinski are pointed out? Here's some remedial logic for you. "Ad hominem" means- "to the man". It is a logical fallacy that takes the form "X is a bad person, therefore X is wrong about Y". An example "vegetarianism is wrong because Hitler was a vegetarian". Good luck finding an example of this from me. Pointing out that Berlinski is a fraud is not an ad hominem- it's a fact. He lies about a PhD in mathematics, he has no such degree. He feigns expertise in evolutionary biology- he has none. He lied about having been a post doc in "mathematics and molecular biology"- he was nothing of the sort, having no graduate experience in either subject. He was a temporary TEACHING ASSISTANT at various institutions and was routinely fired because he was rubbish at it. Again, pointing out that Berlinski is a fraud is simply stating a fact.

My background is in mathematics- in which I worked at a far higher level than Berlinski. I am therefore INTELLIGENT and knowledgeable enough to see this ridiculous fraud for what he is. He presents himself as a mathematician- having peddled the lie that he has a PhD in the subject. I have seen him refer to mathematics constantly, seen many of his sycophants drool over his prowess, seen him today referred to as a mathematician AND physicist! It's only a matter of time before he's seen as a member of The Spice Girls, the inventor of the smartphone and The King of Nigeria. I have once heard him attempt to discuss advanced mathematics- the status of the Riemann Hypothesis, only the most significant unsolved problem in pure mathematics. Had he a shred of integrity he'd have admitted: I've absolutely no idea, it's WAY beyond my pay grade and I couldn't even STATE it. Instead we got a pompous, long winded sermon on the nature of conjecture vs theorem. He COULD have stated that it's called a "hypothesis" because a large body of work has been done assuming it's true- though that hasn't been shown. Nope. Then we get the bizarre nugget that poor tragic Riemann died at the same age as poor tragic Schubert. They didn't, as 31=/=39 but how painfully and exquisitely cultured he sounded. We are then told it's a problem in complex function theory! It involves a complex function but the significance is in NUMBER THEORY. If RH is true there are HUGE implications for the distribution of primes. The great mathematician seems to know nothing about this. We then got something about "the upper half plane"......nope. The zeta function is defined on *C\{1}* NOT the upper half plane. I'd bet the house he was garbling something he read about Wiles proof of Fermat which involves modular forms- defined on the upper half plane. Either way- it's just nonsense. We then get his version of RH- "either the zeros line up on some pole or (flails arms wildly) they are all over the place". Good fucking grief! A pole is a POINT not a line- a singularity. The zeta function has a simple pole at z=1 corresponding to the divergence of the harmonic series. NOTHING can line up on a pole. The critical line is Re(z)=1/2. Far from being "all over the place" the first several trillion zeros are known to be ON the line and ALL are known to lie within a critical strip of the line. Again- Professor Sir Dr Lord Berlinski PhD, DDR, DDT seems oblivious to this FUNDAMENTAL piece of knowledge. For an encore he tells us that some proofs are being considered but haven't been verified as of yet. This is totally false. The last "proof" offered was Atiyah's and it was flawed. Just to remind you- the man responsible for the above miserable trainwreck would like you to believe this is his area of expertise. His horseshit on evolution is even more embarrassing. Try to be less presumptuous.....you don't know what you think you know, either about Berlinski or about me.
