One thing almost everyone remembers was David Grusch’s claim that, when the data and evidence of NHI activity on Earth are revealed, humanity could go through an ONTOLOGICAL SHOCK. And this shock has already been happening, just not in the way many people in this SUB think it will happen. We thought: HAHA, it’s over for you religious fundamentalists! But in reality, the weapon is pointing at others. We ignored that the real shock will probably be felt by contemporary rationalists. Religious people may even absorb quite easily the idea that there is a non human intelligence acting in our world and that we recovered objects and bodies from it. But what about the naturalist individual who trusts only what science says? It has been honestly annoying to deal with skeptics lately in many ways. Even since 2017, the phenomenon has started to receive strong publicity and evidence from military sources. The shock is real and we are already seeing it. Recently a bunch of skeptics showed up here in this SUB, citing Mick West, Tyson and even Carl Sagan. This is a historical phenomenon. Grusch used the term ONTOLOGICAL and this is a philosophical term. Philosophy has been abandoned by universities. We prefer the natural sciences, exact sciences and applied sciences more than abstract philosophy. Ontology is the discipline of philosophy that studies the nature of reality. Grusch exposed that the nature of reality will change when we learn about the data that is still classified. Do you understand this? All skeptical materialism goes down the drain. This is historical because a worldview was formed in the West, especially in Europe and in the USA, deeply based on scientific and philosophical naturalism. A strong scientism and belief in science, and a strong rejection of non prosaic causes for the events of nature. These are the people who will take the biggest hit. They will discover that 70 to 80 percent of the science taught in elite universities is philosophically and fundamentally wrong. They will discover aspects of reality they did not think were possible. They will see the laws of physics being broken and even ignored in videos and images. All of this will be too much for these people. Their worldview will genuinely collapse. When whistleblowers say that catastrophic disclosure could alter the global order, they may be referring to the fact that literally thousands of people will see the cutting edge science of their expensive universities, funded for the rest of their lives, being refuted. Start thinking a little less about religious people, and more about non religious people. How will they absorb the fact that there is a NHI on this planet, acting with wide technological superiority, whose origin we do not know and whose real intention we do not understand? It is time to return to Thomas Aquinas, to medieval philosophers, to Plato and Aristotle. Because the criticisms Kant made against metaphysics and the Enlightenment desire to leave the investigation of knowledge only in the physical world are reaching their limit. Modern science should already have collapsed after Hume’s critique. But apparently everyone ignored it and kept trusting it. I think that finally an actual and existing supernatural phenomenon, because NHI and flying saucers are not natural things from this planet, therefore they are supernatural in that sense, will finally bury Western materialism. The real ontological shock may not be for the religious. It may be for the people who thought reality was already fully explained. submitted by /u/SilvaMarvin [link] [comments]
