A [conceptual] framework describing how the institution of science operates as a disciplinary panopticon—constantly surveilling, evaluating, and disciplining the boundaries of [legitimate] knowledge. Scientists and laypeople alike internalize the gaze of “Science” as an authority that watches over their beliefs, demanding conformity to peer review, consensus, and methodological orthodoxy. Unlike overt [censorship], the Science Panopticon works through self‑regulation: individuals learn to police their own thoughts, avoid “unscientific” claims, and defer to institutional gatekeepers. It explains why many people pre‑emptively dismiss their own spiritual or heterodox experiences as “unscientific” before any external judgment occurs.
