In brief, Science and Scientism find
everything that is non-human more fascinating that
what is human, that is, fully male and female. Their
discipline and practice of emotionlessness differs but
in style from the vision and spirituality of the
lone male Abrahamic tradition. Notably, while
lacking the Rib imagery, Scientism rejects what
are typically described as feminine traits. These
include a focus on developing relationships, being empathetic and
sympathetic, identification as a nurturer, among others.
What Earthfolk find in the Abrahamic and Scientism
Big Stories is a very twisted, contorted, even tortured sense
of masculinity—yet, one that has
become the standard for judging what it means to be truly human,
that is, "to be a man." Each Big Story's emphasis on this
type of lone-male masculinity to the suppression
or exclusion of feminine values and traits reveals that the Warrior
Quester is bound by a self-absorbed male narcissism.
In both the Abrahamic and Scientism traditions, the
male has nothing to do with the female in
a spiritual or energy sense. He needs her body for
making babies, but he does not need
her to become whole in body, mind or heart—she is in no conceivable
way his “soulmate.”
In the Abrahamic tradition, Augustine of
Hippo famously stated that,
“Except for the
purpose of procreation,
another man would have been a
more suitable companion for Adam.”
Unhappily, Scientism fosters the
same self-absorbed sense of male narcissism as does
the Abrahamic.
