Dark Ages: WHEN AND WHY SCIENCE GOES IN REVERSE
The logic of scientific discovery is not just a matter of curiosity or history. It’s also a matter of logic: finding what was found first, because it is often what is the most apparent and obvious. Thus studying the history of science has a pedagogical aspect.
But not just that: often the logic of discovery has been obscured and one of the reasons has been to dissimulate how clever and “scientific”, or technological people could be in the past [1]. It has also obscured how the several Dark Ages we know of happened. In the Dark Age which terminated the Bronze Age, the savagery got so intense that writing was lost to the point that the old writing systems disappeared (the Phoenician alphabet, which gave rise to the Greek alphabet, did not derive from Cretan alphabets; it was derived from something else 1000 year old).
So by studying how and why science got destroyed, one can study forces to that effect… They keep on coming back…
***
The Loss Of Ancient Science Was Astounding:
Examples are the discovery that the Earth was round and correct computation of its size (Phyteas of Marseilles, an explorer who may have got to Iceland; generations later, Eratosthenes). Much of that knowledge like the rest of Greco-Roman science was erased by Christian Terror and Obscurantism… Itself propelled and engineered by obscurantist plutocracy, precisely to create unreason and stupidification.
Thus the Ankyterea mechanism, a very sophisticated mechanical computer, or the start of infinitesimal calculus or Aristarchus of Samos’ heliocentric arguments… The argument, relaunched by Buridan around 1340 CE, that the Sun was gigantic and thus ought to be the one turned around, was pretty obvious: after computing the distance of the Moon from Earth’s shadow, studying the terminator of the Moon, the Greeks knew the Sun was at least three million kilometers away and thus much bigger… Also Greece earned a lot of income by breeding better animals thus knowing about selection…
***
Science was destroyed by Christianism and its plutocratic sponsors to create the meta-worship of unreason: if one venerates unreason, one may as well believe that there is more wisdom in One-man rule, rather than in debate…. Thus “Orthodox Catholicism” was translated into the worship of the Emperor/Monarch, representative of the great Dog barking from Heaven.
Buridan and other top intellectuals, and the science and mathematics they produced, and that includes the geometric calculus which Newton would use, were condemned. more than a century after Buridan’s death, when the French King Louis XI, Europe’s most powerful monarch, made an alliance with the Pope. This holy alliance of fiends had long term consequences, like sending to be burned alive many thinkers, including the medical doctor who discovered blood circulation, Servet… Who was burned alive very slowly, over several hours in Geneva, by the always very attentionate fanatic, a French lawyer called Calvin, Geneva’s tyrant, whom the abuse of God had rendered completely insane and amazingly vicious…
Fortunately, the complete fall in the Dark Ages was avoided in the Sixteenth Century: several of the monarchs in power were not too enarmored by the existing order and kept their distances from the Pope (Charles Quint, Henry VIII, Henri III, Henri IV)… Technological superiority won wars and thus science was well received by the powers that be. Rome under Emperor Vespasian (circa 70 CE) could afford to despise the advancement of technology… But Elizabeth I could not because her sea captains had to be the best in the best ships, lest the Great Armada took Britain over… While Basque fishermen had long learned to discreet about the abundant cod and right whales off Newfoundland…

Later science was diverted to cultivate nationalism or ethnicism. The numeral system, launched by the Greeks and amplified by Indians, who added the crucial zero was called an “Arab” invention generally in conjunction with singing the praises of Islam. However the transmission and amplification (if any) was due to a Central Asian, Al-Khwarizmi in the House Of Wisdom… the House of Wisdom in Baghdad which one can euphemistically describe as the good side of Islam (Mahomet advocated for science at some point; something Christ never did to my knowledge).

A Striking Example of Historical Disinformation Is to Stamp Mechanics WithThe Label “Newton”:
Nearly all Newton’s laws were discovered before Newton, three of them by French physicists (horror!). Ishmael Bullaldius/Boulliaut, a French priest (with now a crater on the Moon), discovered the Gravitation Law, and the proof of F = ma for gravitation is in Buridan, three centuries earlier (I read it verbatim; In Buridan Axiomatics, F = ma is a theorem…). BTW, Newton himself argued that in his dispute with Hooke… “I saw further because I was standing on the shoulders of giants… “ a famous quote from Bernard of Chartres, who died in 1124 CE, 550 years before Newton… Which Newton used tongue in cheek… While discreetly insulting the dwarfy Hooke…
Not to say Newton was not great. He was! His proofs of how various axioms of mechanics implied each other was crucial.However, it’s Buridan who found momentum, three centuries before Newton and F = m dv/dt…
And look at Émilie du Châtelet: long considered, even in France, just as Voltaire’s girlfriend.. She was more important than him! But that was ignored because she was a woman (who decided to dress like a man to be taken seriously…) Émilie, translating Newton from Latin to French, realized that Newton had confused momentum and energy. She did not just translate: she redid Newton’s math, chapter by chapter and added supplements, for example on tides, or on Earth’s inclination (her translation is still the copy of Newton in French in 2026, BTW)
All of this is of great contemporary interest: In Europe the partisans of “degrowth” succeeded to make “degrowth” official European policy in many countries (for example Elizabeth Bornes, French PM, wanted to reduce French electric consommation by 35% by 20235, while turning everything electric). That grotesque and anti-civilizational, even anti-humanistic policy of degrowth is now increasingly contested, as it is becoming ever more obvious that Europe is losing AGENCY.
Thus the partisans of degrowth, cornered like the antihumanists they are, now want to double up on their evil scheme and advocate outright “DESCIENCE”. An immediate battle is the FCC, the Future Circular Collider in the greater Geneva area, a new extension of CERN. This is to study high energy physics, the architecture of nature, and it costs peanuts relative to the handbag industry in France alone…
The truth is that, without much more advanced science, most of the present world’s population will have to vanish, because the present technologies are unsustainable in many different ways…
Who found what, when and how shows us how to inquire. It’s a must, not just to figure things out, and to learn how to figure things out, but also because, if we don’t, civilization may well die, and not nicely…. This is what the epidemics of unreason and de-science in the past have shown, and what we must study, including the Maya collapse…
To explain civilizational collapse, one generally look at Inequality. However, the Inequality is the fruit of a Plutocracy, and the Plutocracy, as its name indicates, uses evil ways to stay in power: removing agency in those over whom Plutocracy exert its power is crucial. That is best implemented not by using physical chains, but mental chains. Hence Plutocracies tend to stupidify their subjects. And how to do this? By implementing de-science!

[1] And this happens also in a granular fashion. When general Vespasian succeeded, after the year of the four emperors, to Nero, he abandoned or demolished several of Nero’s technological projects (like the hydropower revolving restaurant, or the giant canal projects). Vespasian actively discouraged the advancement of engineering… To save jobs, he said, the same old argument which has resurfaced with AI. After Vespasian, there are no quarrels on advancing technology: that’s abandoned. It’s in Gaul that mechanical harvesters would be used while in Italy, slaves laboring in giant latifundia would be preferred. The former explains why Gaul became the power of the future and Italy would never recover all the way to Mussolini… So a grain of degrowth, de-science and de-tech like Vespasian can bring an entire state, here the Roman state to fall…

However, the Inequality is the fruit of a Plutocracy, and the Plutocracy, as its name indicates, uses evil ways to stay in power: removing agency in those over whom Plutocracy exert its power is crucial. That is best implemented not by using physical chains, but mental chains. Hence Plutocracies tend to stupidify their subjects. And how to do this? By implementing de-science!

BURIDAN: MOMENTUM, FORCE, INERTIA, F = MA, MIDDLE AGES…

[1] And this happens also in a granular fashion. When general Vespasian succeeded, after the year of the four emperors, to Nero, he abandoned or demolished several of Nero’s technological projects (like the hydropower revolving restaurant, or the giant canal projects). Vespasian actively discouraged the advancement of engineering… To save jobs, he said, the same old argument which has resurfaced with AI. After Vespasian, there are no quarrels on advancing technology: that’s abandoned. It’s in Gaul that mechanical harvesters would be used while in Italy, slaves laboring in giant latifundia would be preferred. The former explains why Gaul became the power of the future and Italy would never recover all the way to Mussolini… So a grain of degrowth, de-science and de-tech like Vespasian can bring an entire state, here the Roman state to fall…

Beware the Ills: Part 44
The graveyard’s behind me now. I’ll reach the river soon. My speed’s at top gear. The trees mix. The black and brown, the needles, all their images flowing and following me. I feel like an Ill, running panicked along the mountain cliffs. The Ills, what will be done about them if I fail? My conversation was less than provocative, but like I said before, I left them alive.
I’m at the river finally. The city will not be far from here. The sheets of ice from earlier still bounce along the dark river, which reflects the random threads of sunlight. I can see the corpses of the men Blue and I killed. The machines are destroyed and turned over. Some are still steaming in the cold. I assume they were dilapidated even further by the invaders, so they couldn’t be taken by some other party.
I admire their future sight.
I leap across the plates easily. They barely move beneath my bounds. I come across the man’s spear and pause. Normally, I have no respect for the dead, no patience. It’s disgusting. I’m not sure why I decided to change.
I’m at the eastern bank of the river where Haukter hit me. A wide pool of blood sits spattered across the bank and ice plates. Blue’s blood, I’m sure of it. There are strips of fur and broken arrows everywhere. They must have pinned him here for quite some time. I slash the plate vertically with his leftover scraps.
It’ll sink to the bottom of the river.
The city is not far. I will be there shortly. Sunlight spills over the tops of the Shingles, and their random shapes. More trees pass, more trees and snow, more wind howling. Repeating the images around me makes me feel in control.
The city is growing closer, and I’m feeling better.
I remember them throwing me from the Shingles. The torches, the spinning snow, the sickness of the grey stone passing me. I remember the pain in my arms when I hit the snowy rock. It’s very hard to remember. I had to focus on the killing. My arms hurt from the fall, but they didn’t break, nothing did. My bruises healed in days. The Shingles back then were so big and endless. The crawlspace inside of them was large for my little body.
How did I find it again?
More trees, they never end when you’re in a hurry. More explosions up ahead, blue light spreads in the sky. So close, everyone there must hold on. I will kill them.
I’m coming to where the trees begin to thin and the clearing before the edge of the Shingles. I cannot remember many of whom I’ve killed except for Haukter, his kind I remember very well. I should’ve killed you Haukter. I should’ve killed you. The clearing before the Shingles ends quickly.
I stop to stare at them.
The wall has been breached. The Shingles have been smashed down at their ancient roots into crumbled piles of old stone. Not all of them are gone, but ripped holes outnumber the slabs of stone.
Why so many shots into the wall? The last layer, where I was standing just the other day and witnessed the children, has been destroyed. Piles of ageless brick and mortar are everywhere. Their machines did it, their armored walking contraptions with their pretty energy.
I’m through the wall.
So strange not to climb it. So strange not to walk high over it. The grey path through the mountain valley into the Diamond Town curls before me. I will not allow them to hurt or kill anyone. I will not allow the citizens of the Diamond Town to kill either. None of it may happen. I will not allow it. I cannot feel my lungs. I’m almost there. Haukter, I will kill you. This is your fault. You allowed them to breach the wall and Shingles. Still, this is my fault, I allowed Haukter to live.
The city, more snow, more wind, the city.
I can see it.
I’ll be releasing my novel Beware the Ills in segments every Friday. You can find out more about the book right here, or check out Amazon’s info. I love this book. Happy to simply share it.
