Level

Don't be fooled by those religions that claim "everyone is equal". In reality, everyone is different. These are the various ways in which people can be different from one another:

• Cognitive intelligence (IQ)
• Emotional intelligence (EQ)
• Interests
• Talents
• Knowledge and education
• Experience
• Physiological needs
  • Breathing
  • Homeostasis
  • Water
  • Sleep
  • Food
  • Sex
  • Clothing
  • Shelter

All of the above factors are interrelated and are inextricably intertwined in cause/effect relationships and are impossible to meaningfully separate one from another.

As we can see from the above, every person is different. The question is who can you trust to give you the right answers to your questions? The clever person knows whos answers to trust.

• Will you go to a car salesman when you have a problem with the plumbing in your home? Will you go to a geologist to ask a question related to biology? (This is where interests, knowledge, and experience comes in)

• Will you go to someone who is desperately in need of money for financial advice? You definitely shouldn't!

In Sciencism, sciencists are grouped into levels, based on their level of understanding (because understanding is a combination of all the different variables such as IQ, EQ, interests, talents, knowledge, experience, etc). It is a way for sciencists who have a more basic understanding of sciencism to get advice and learning from sciencists of a more advanced level. And as a sciencist's understanding improves, he/she will achieve higher levels, thus being able to advise and teach sciencists of a lower level.

This is not a comprehensive list of the Levels in Sciencism, as this list (as with everything in Sciencism) is subject to change along with new revelations from Science.

• Level 0: These are non-Sciencists who are not interested in Sciencism. On this website, they will appear as "anonymous users".
• Level 1: These are non-Sciencists who are interested in Sciencism, with the possibility of becoming Sciencists sometime in the future. On this website, they will appear as "authenticated users" (note that not all Level 1 persons will choose to register and participate on this website).
• Level 2: These are Sciencists who have recently converted to Sciencism. They may still be in a transition phase, not having completely discarded their old religion. Nevertheless they have taken the first step on the path to enlightenment.
• Level 999
