Also, science has nothing to do with capitalism, I really don't know where you got that from. Corruption, price fixing and hoarding of commodities.....again, irrelevant to science.
But the reason we have pollution and wars over resources is because science doesn't have all the answers yet. But they are advancing.
Where is the good in science you ask?
Well, the internet for one, is a creation of science. The very reason you can express your ridiculous assertions to us is because of science.
Also, medical breakthroughs, vaccines and treatments for disease, genetic illnesses, cancer, aids, typhus, cholera, dysentery etc.
The reason we have sewers, clean water to drink and food readily available is due to science.
Transportation. Due to science, we now have vehicles that can travel the globe in a short space of time. We can go places that 150 years ago, no one could. We can trade valuable resources with other countries.
We can genetically engineer crops to be more hardy and nutritious, that helps 3rd world countries like places in Africa and india.
The car or bus or bicycle you take to your hospital is a result of science. The drugs you administer to patients, are a result of science. The medical equipment you use to save lives is a result of science.
We can transplant organs for Christ sake! Need a new heart! Sure here you go! How about a new lung, kidney, liver. So when you ask, where is the good in science? I want you to understand just how stupid a question that is. You should be thoroughly embarrassed. You take for granted everything that science has done to improve your life.
You still float in the sewer.
You never grow up do you?
You haven't got a clue about the difference between stay afloat
and progress.
Physical science is not only good in some instances but necessary to keep us afloat.
Keep us afloat is great but it is not progress.
Progress is when you are able to get out the trouble waters
once and for good or in your case out the guttering.
Life is hard from the first breath to the last.
You can discover so many things and you can
do so many things that help to keep you alive but at the end
you will never be able to beat mother nature and find
total peace of mind and happiness by using physical science
so at the end unless you use a different method you will always
try to stay afloat and that is hard no matter what the latest scientific knowledge can do for you.

"criticism is the backbone of the scientific method"
What bullshit are you talking about?
The method of procedure goes back to the cave man when they discover the fire.
After observing the lighting, after trying and testing and modified they finally
came to the conclusion that it is by rubbing two dry sticks that the fire started.
Forget about your 17th century.
Science goes back million of years.
