Scientific Literacy

Scientific literacy is one of the most significant forms of literacy and/or educational intellectualism from a personal standpoint. My reasoning behind the aforementioned statement is of the profound simplicity and complexity that science exhibits and has. Science is an intellectual entity that contains four major components of intellectualism, innovation, complexity,  inquiry, and intelligence(standard and crystallised). By practicing and/or utilizing the principles and skills presented in science better cognition and overall intelligence can be acquired. My personal definition of scientific literacy is the understanding, application, utilization, and interpretation of scientific concepts. Scientific literacy is not solely acquired through effective education but also through personal scientific inquiry and personal engagement in the sciences.

What Is Reality? (Part 2)/Agnostic Atheism

Reality from a/my personal perspective and/or standpoint is a series of grandiose projections that serve the purpose of utilizing and presenting metaphysical and philosophical principles and/or merit(s). Reality is an entity that can be controlled/perceived through a powerful medium whether it be through/from technology/computers or human beings, it is a controlled entity that is available to some and vacant or nonexistent to some. The classification of reality presented in this post is one of combined sensory and mental reality, not circumstantial reality. Reality from my perspective is controlled and owned by a higher being (God), this reality is utilized by God to present significant projections of living and faith, whoever follows these projections are sentenced to eternal life in heaven, while those who condemn it are sentenced to live life eternally in hell. This post was also contrived to express personal confusion towards the term "agnostic atheism." The term "agnostic atheism" is a contradiction because atheism means the unbelief towards any god while agnosticism is the uncertainty of the presence and existence of a higher being. Atheism is complete unbelief towards the existence of a higher being therefore, there is no capacity to house any uncertainty about the existence towards a higher being. I deem/declare the term "agnostic atheism" invalid and irrational.
