And the disaster, I would say, in relation to the assessment of spiritual research, can arise in particular from the fact that those who want to form an opinion do not form it according to what true spiritual research has to give, but form it according to what all kinds of spiritual research dilettantes offer the world. It is very often the case, however, that a certain contempt for scientific methods and also for scientific results comes to light in these presentations. This contempt is usually in direct proportion to what is actually not known about this science. The true spiritual researcher will always take the trouble to discipline himself in the good discipline of truth and research of the scientific way of knowing. And often the contempt for the scientific way of thinking is enormous, especially among those who have never actually learned anything useful from science.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"8.

Und das Unheil, möchte ich sagen, in Bezug auf die Beurteilung der Geistesforschung, kann namentlich dadurch entstehen, dass diejenigen, die sich ein Urteil bilden wollen, es sich nicht bilden nach dem, was wahre Geistesforschung zu geben hat, sondern es sich bilden nach dem, was allerlei Dilettanten der Geistesforschung der Welt darbieten. Da stellt sich sehr häufig allerdings dann heraus, dass in jenen Darbietungen eine gewisse Verachtung der naturwissenschaftlichen Methoden und auch der naturwissenschaftlichen Ergebnisse zutage tritt. Diese Verachtung steht meistens in einem geraden Verhältnisse zu dem, was man von dieser Naturwissenschaft dann eigentlich nicht kennt. Der wahre Geistesforscher wird sich immer die Mühe geben, gerade sich selber zu disziplinieren an der guten Wahrheitsdisziplin und Forschungsdisziplin der naturwissenschaftlichen Erkenntnisweise.
