Podcasts on Science and Rationality - (1) The Misuse of Science vs. the Misuse of Religion

This is the second session of my Podcast series "Podcasts on Science and Rationality". As the subtitle says, I talk about the misuse of both science and religion, working out the difference between these two kinds of misuse by concentrating on their intrinsic characteristics.
Especially, I refer to the definition of science or scientificness (I explain the difference in the video) by Wilfrid Sellars in quoting him from his famous essay "Empiricism and the Philosophy of Mind", and to the teachings of Jesus which people often quote or talk about in the wrong context. To be sure, Jesus taught the Jews to love one another, but he declared it a sin to respect persons, for this would be a transgression of the law.

Rate the video as you like, but don't leave one-word comments, insults or unqualified nonsense. Thank you!
