So this quick tour of psience leads us to the second thing an aspiring psientist gets rid of, after belief: thought. Psience allows one to easily verify and confirm, without any possibility of doubt whatosever, that personal thought does not exist. It's an illusion. All thought is telepathic, as psience can clearly once again demonstrate without any possible doubt. So one removes the illusion of personal thought, once one has spent enough time proving that it is absolutely and wholly unnecessary to the pursuit of one's life.

And here, after just this second step, one can see that the psientist's mind, devoid of both belief and thought, doesn't resemble that of most humans. AT ALL. It is the mental state of the much-expected Übermensch. There are further steps that one unerringly undertakes after that as a psientist, but their meaning, importance and benefits are hard to convey to conventional mind.

So why would one think that psience is indeed a science? Well firstly, it entirely disavows belief which is the basis of scientism and pseudoscience. Giving zero credence to any conceptualized ideas is equivalent to dealing with Objective, Absolute Reality, since the information being used is neither believed, nor conceptualized, nor "thought about". It is thus information that exists independently of any mind grasping it. This is what a FACT is. How can a discipline using logic and reasoning on pure FACTS be fictitious in any way? It can't.

But if you voice your objections and questions regarding this, I will gladly put them all to rest.
