“ArtiFact #23: Sciolism – Jordan B. Peterson, Christopher Langan, Athena Walker & Quora Experts

Over the past decade, pretenders such as Jordan B. Peterson, Joe Rogan, Sam Harris, the latter-day Richard Dawkins, Christopher Langan, Ben Shapiro, as well as their liberal counterparts have taken attention away from those with genuine ideas to impart. In this video, Alex Sheremet and Dan Schneider comb through these sciolists’ aesthetics, their claims, their craving for an ever-expanding audience of know-nothings, and various intellectual traps they’ve laid for themselves in the quest for pelf.” https://youtu.be/9e0sb886l1Y

“In existographies, Christopher Langan (1952-) (DN:1) (CIR:24) (CR:33) is an American autodidact, with a claimed IQ of 190 to 210 (2001), notable as a weed theorist who since circa 1990 as been promoting anti-reductionism (i.e. he argues for "informational reductionism", the view that the basis of reality is not matter and energy, but information), self-motion anthropic principle teleology-themed theory of intelligent design in order to prove the existence of god, via recourse a hodgepodge of standard melting plot theory + ontic opening polemics, namely: complexity theory, information theory, self-organization theory, Markoff processes (i.e. chance), via citation to fellow creationists such as David Berlinski (CIR:19), Michael Behe (CIR:1), William Dembski (CIR:5), intermixed with ideas of John Wheeler (quantum information), Kurt Godel (incompleteness), and David Bohm (holographic universe).” https://www.eoht.info/page/Christopher%20Langan

“I remember the Asmodeous incident from way back, and had saved this comment made at the time apparently by Mr. Langan:

"Caution - this article is misleading An interesting little article, if only because it is almost completely misleading in its references to me, my wife, and my ideas, and the use of those references to exemplify Wikipedia’s problem with “narcissistic cranks” and “questionable theories”. The actual facts of the case cited by Mr. Farrell can be found in pages accessible from those linked above, and they do not weigh in Wikipedia’s favor. Suffice it to say that Wikipedia's worst problem is not cranks and their theories, but its huge and growing population of anonymous trolls, vandals, and fake "experts", many of whom function as Wikipedia administrators.

Lest anyone be given the wrong impression, neither I nor my wife has ever introduced an article on me or the CTMU to Wikipedia. Those articles were authored, and signed, by others with no known connection to us. As regards the editing of existing articles, the rules of Wikipedia, while discouraging "conflicts of interest", explicitly allow the subjects of Wikipedia articles to remove defamation and correct falsehoods regarding themselves, their ideas, and their activities (obviously, prohibiting such corrections could lead to serious legal and ethical difficulties for Wikipedia). Although the Wikipedia Arbitration Committee does not always respect those rules, certain militant editors and outright trolls who had been pseudonymously using the encyclopedia to attack my reputation and ideas were ultimately warned to desist by the head of the Wikimedia Foundation.

Of course, like everyone else, those who run Cosmos magazine are welcome to their opinions, no matter how uninformed or premature they may be. However, I respectfully suggest that its editors, editorial advisors, and executives be a bit more careful regarding the possible long-term effects of such disparaging articles. Responsible intellectual commerce has no room for veiled accusations and snide insinuations like those exemplified above.

Incidentally, should any scientist or philosopher on the staff of Cosmos ever wish to take open, reasoned, non-pseudonymous exception to any technical statement actually made or written by me and invite a response, I welcome him or her to do so. If nothing else, the readers of Cosmos might find such an exchange instructive. But in any event, rumor-based, content-deficient articles like this have very little relevance to science, cosmology, or anything legitimately related to them.

Christopher M. Langan”

“Christopher Michael Langan was born in 1952 in San Francisco , California but spent most of his childhood in Montana. His mother, Mary Langan-Hansen (née Chappelle July 20, 1932 - July 1, 2014), was the daughter of a wealthy shipping executive but was cut off from her family. His biological father, Melvin Letman (a U.S. Marine who was 100% Russian Jewish), died or disappeared before he was born. Owing to a combination of severed family ties and an absent father figure for her children, Mary was often pressured to adopt an economically itinerant lifestyle on behalf of her four children. This meant frequently living on violent Indian reservations in conditions of extreme poverty. [7][8] During elementary school, Langan was repeatedly skipped ahead and was tormented by his peers. Langan claims he was brutally beaten by his stepfather, Jack Langan. Jack Langan denies this claim.” https://steemit.com/history/@fizzygold/the-smartest-man-in-the-world

Today Langan says Francis Bacon (1561 – 1626) was his First Cousin 15 times removed which means one of his parents had to be 400 years old.

"Times removed" is a way to describe the number of generations between two people in a family tree. For example, if you and your first cousin are not in the same generation, you are "once removed". If you are two generations higher or lower, you are "twice removed". A cousin is a relative that is the child of a parent's sibling; this is more specifically referred to as a first cousin.

Langan’s earliest recorded ancestor I found so far is NN Graves down his mother’s mother’s side and was born in the mid-16th Century in Hertford, England, and his son Deacon George Graves was born in Hartford, Connecticut in 1605.

“Hertford is the county town of Hertfordshire, England, and is also a civil parish in the East Hertfordshire district of the county.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hertford

“On the 22nd of this month it will be exactly 462 years since the birth of one of Hertfordshire’s most famous figures, Sir Francis Bacon.

Bacon was born in January 1561 at York House near the Strand in London. If his family connections were anything to go by, he was destined for great things. Not only was Francis the son of Sir Nicholas Bacon who was Lord Keeper of the Great Seal, he was the grandson of the humanist Anthony Cooke. As an added bonus his aunt was married to William Cecil, 1st Baron Burghley, who was an incredibly important player in the court of Queen Elizabeth I. … Francis also played a leading role in establishing the British colonies in North America, especially in Virginia, the Carolinas and Newfoundland in northeastern Canada. Thomas Jefferson, the third President of the United States even wrote that Bacon was ‘one of the greatest men who had ever lived’.

Francis was made Baron Verulam in 1618, and Viscount of St Albans in 1621. His influence over the King eventually inspired resentment in many of his peers. Some of his enemies were waiting to pounce – and pounce they did in 1621 when Francis was accused of – and admitted- accepting bribes in his parliamentary and legal work.

Among the items he was said to have accepted were gold buttons and expensive draperies for his home. These transgressions saw him fined £40,000, banished from the court and even imprisoned in the Tower of London for a few days.

Though later pardoned by the king, Francis was effectively ‘cancelled’. His public life ended in disgrace. It was during this trying time that Francis retired to Old Gorhambury House in Hertfordshire. Here he pursued his literary endeavours, working on pieces such as “New Atlantis”, “The History of Life and Death” and “the History of Henry VII”.” https://www.hertsad.co.uk/news/24064270.sir-francis-bacon-born/#

AryanOverlord:

There is a connection to Francis Bacon’s retirement home and Hertford where Langan’s earliest ancestor is traced to, making Sir Anthony Cooke the oldest intellectual person he has some geographical connection to (not necessarily an indication of a genetic one.)

Sir Anthony Cooke, KB (June 1501 – 11 June 1576) was an English humanist scholar. He was tutor to Edward VI. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthony_Cooke

“The county has a rich intellectual history, and many writers of major importance, from Geoffrey Chaucer to Beatrix Potter, have connections there. Quite a number of prime ministers were born or grew up in Hertfordshire.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Hertfordshire
