(February 17, 2015 at 10:50 am)watchamadoodle Wrote: It seems to me that "purpose" and "beauty" are within the magisterium of science too. For example, science can measure psychological wellbeing, productivity, emotional reaction, etc.

Take the example of cooking recipes. Science can measure the quality of recipes in various ways. One recipe might be nutritious. Another recipe might have mass appeal...

I don't think science is equipped to address æsthetics, or subjective matters like taste. I also don't think science provides "purpose" to anything.
