The Category Error of Scientism

[mralstoner]

... the scientific method, by virtue of its self-imposed limitation, cannot inquire into the cause or experiential character of mental properties. Nor can scientific findings, like evolutionary processes, be used to support any moral philosophy.

Much of what you said is correct, but not the above statement. Science can and does study subjective wellbeing (i.e. feelings) both by observation and by survey. Over time, science will increasingly be able to say what, generally speaking, are the conditions for happiness for an average human being. And those scientific findings definitely will be used in support of moral philosophy. But that said, no amount of scientific information, or moral philosophy derived thereof, can make such a philosophy desirable for you - especially if you're not an average individual.
