Bilim, "Allah Var" Ya Da "Yok" Diyemez | Frekans | 62

In this episode of Frequency, Prof. Dr. Enis Doko examines why the conservative segment in Türkiye is experiencing a deep crisis of trust in institutional science and academia. Touching upon the power struggles between scientists, religious schools, and social media preachers, Doko criticizes how the fallacy of "scientism," which views science as the sole source of knowledge, unjustly attacks religion and philosophy. He explains how the past justification of headscarf bans in universities in the name of science has erected a wall between the conservative public and academia. The episode emphasizes that science only describes what is; it cannot directly answer philosophical and normative questions such as morality, aesthetics, and "Does God exist?" Furthermore, it argues that rejecting modern science as Western hegemony is not an anti-imperialist stance, but rather a dangerous ignorance that weakens society. Finally, it reminds academics that they should shed their arrogance and act responsibly and respectfully towards the public that funds them. 00:00 - Teaser: The Dangers Behind Anti-Science and Anti-Academia 00:58 - Introduction: The Main Reasons for the Growing Anti-Science Influence in Conservative Circles 02:43 - The Confusion Between Science and Scientism: Does Science Explain Everything? 05:10 - Power Struggles: Madrasas, Social Media Preachers, and the Academy 10:40 - Is Rejecting Science in the Name of Opposing Western Hegemony the Right Thing to Do? 16:49 - The Limits of Science: Can Science Answer Questions of Ethics, Morality, and Faith? 23:11 - The Devaluation of Expertise and the Nobility of Knowledge in Islamic Civilization 27:48 - The Principle of Radical Transparency in Academia: Why is Science Reliable? 34:02 - The Arrogance of Academics and Their Unpostponable Responsibilities Towards Society Subscribe to our channel: https://bit.ly/gdhdigital-abone-ol Our Social Media Accounts: X: https://x.com/gundemedairhs Instagram:   / gundemedairhs   Facebook:   / gundemedairhs   Telegram: https://t.me/gundemedairhs
