These seem to imply something like a moral imperative.
if you can prove objectively that the scientific method is the best way to find truth, then the idea that you ought to measure truth by the scientific method is objective. Now we're likely never to find the whole truth about anything. the exact details about how things happen may ever elude us. However we can know what happens through science. That is why it rules, as Bill Nye says.
