How we appreciate science fiction may be hard-wired as a consequence of our human genetic and developmental heritage... https://t.co/vKg76uPwfO

[Ben Menadue @BenMenadue]

Our appreciation of science fiction appears to be grounded in our human physical capacity to 'make and do' - would we have science fiction if we didn't have opposable thumbs???

Science Fiction says a lot about how people react to pandemics, and sometimes seems strangely prescient when we consider what's happening with COVID-19

@STFUscientology @IndieScieNews @SAGE_News @ChrisO_wiki @JeffreAugustine @Scicrit @Scientology_411 @sheltondesigner I think Hubbard was probably behind the religious status - the first advert attributed to 'The Founding Church of Scientology' appears in the Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction in March 1966, 20 years before his death - check the dataset for my paper: https://t.co/t7yihxiM0w

@STFUscientology @IndieScieNews @SAGE_News @ChrisO_wiki @JeffreAugustine @Scicrit @Scientology_411 @sheltondesigner That was true in 1954. He seemed to change his mind later, evidenced in The Church of Scientology claiming religious status as a basis for tax exemption in numerous court cases
