Meliorism - The rise of neo-atheism and the fall of reason
#85
RE: Meliorism - The rise of neo-atheism and the fall of reason
It is simply the fact that science gets consistent results that I find it odd to question it. Sure, you can question individual parts of science, it is supposed to be self correcting, so if a mistake is made it is imperative that it be challenged. However, to challenge the legitimacy of science in and of itself is a bit absurd, considering how far we have come with it, and how much farther we can go.

And no, you don't apply quantum physics to see how you should go about a relationship, science isn't useful like that (though a "soft" science like psychology might provide some assistance).

If there is a reasonable argument as to why science in and of itself is untrustworthy, I have not heard it.
