Scientism ​

​Scientism is an illusion, a bizarre fantasy that makes of science something it can never be.

Scientism does not exist, it is a strawman created by occultists and wizards whose arguments are five hundred years out of date."
Here is the truth about scientism, from an atheist philosopher of science:
"Let’s… call the worldview that all us atheists (and even some agnostics) share ‘scientism.’ This is the conviction that the methods of science are the only reliable ways to secure knowledge of anything; that science’s description of the world is correct in its fundamentals; and that when ‘complete,’ what science tells us will not be surprisingly different from what it tells us today.” – Alex Rosenberg, from his book The Atheist’s Guide to Reality: Enjoying Life Without Illusions

" Seemingly the paradigm of rationality, it is in fact incoherent, incapable in principle of being defended in a way consistent with its own epistemological scruples. It should go without saying that this in no way entails any criticism of science itself. For a man to acknowledge that there are many beautiful women in the world does not entail that he doesn’t think his own wife or girlfriend is beautiful. Similarly, to say that there are entirely rational and objective sources of knowledge other than science does not commit one to denying that science is a source of knowledge. Those who cannot see this are doubly deluded – like a vain and paranoid wife or girlfriend who thinks all women are far less attractive than she is and regards any suggestion to the contrary as a denial of her own beauty. Worse, like an already beautiful woman whose vanity leads her to destroy her beauty in the attempt to enhance it through plastic surgery, scientism threatens to distort and corrupt science precisely by exaggerating its significance."                                                                                              --Edward Feser
