User:Max conformist

Hello, and welcome to my page...

(Me, at age 6.)

This user is a strict wiki conformist. This user believes that wiki admins are always correct.

I have edited wikipedia in the past, and have recently created a new user name from which I intend to edit from solely. My other accounts have been closed.

I have noticed a few things, from my experiences here, that you may find helpful and that I would like to share:

On Consensus:
 * Wikipedia, unfortunately, limits itself to remaining outside of becoming a true reference material and is currently nothing other than a publication of entertainment. Because articles are based on "consensus", not objective truth, what results is not a scientific article on, say, the duckbill platypus or the current state of the law, but rather on article on what people believe about the duckbill platypus or about the state of a law, whether such beliefs are correct or not.  Thus, articles may be bolstered on common myth so long as there is a consensus that believes it; logic and empirical evidence are not given the same reverence as what people believe.  Disclosing the social temperature of understanding, or the "consensus", unfortunately is not the same as reporting objective fact.


 * I tend to believe that truth is the most beautiful and important pantheon in our society. It remains beautiful and pure despite the messy, inconvenient beliefs of common folks.  For this reason, the greatest men to walk the earth have pulled at this truth, despite chidings by a consensus who preferred vague, indeterminate, and nebulous understanding or "easy truths".  Because truth is valuable, and valuable things are rare, it is quite commonly the case that the "consensus" is incorrect.  Through history, logic, empirical research, and science, the consensus can palpate this uncomfortable feeling of truth: having its unconsciousness scraped at, excised, and replaced with the correct idea or openness to the idea.  Thus, as the consensus struggles and angers at this surgical invasion, so opens the understanding of man to greater things than what was once shabbily held in common as belief.
