Well.... there's always,
"Crickey! Look-it THAT one! I'm a poke it with a STICK!"
Jus' sayin'....
What I think LFC is wondering about is how can science be without philosophy? Whenever people extol the virtues of science, they are implicitly extolling the underlying philosophies as well, whether they see it or not, like it or not.
Of course, one can poke a stick at something without thinking deeply about it. Is that even science anyway?
