    Carl T. Bergstrom Retweeted Richard Dawkins

    If Richard Dawkins read a little bit more of the philosophy of science that he purports to despise, he would know the difference between an epistemological framework, and the ontological truths it aims to uncover.https://twitter.com/RichardDawkins/status/1368259842222268421 …

    Carl T. Bergstrom added,

    Richard DawkinsVerified account @RichardDawkins
    Science is not a social construct. Science’s truths were true before there were societies; will still be true after all philosophers are dead; were true before any philosophers were born; were true before there were any minds, even trilobite or dinosaur minds, to notice them.

        “Science is not a social construct.” I’ve heard six year-olds refer to the actual entities — black holes and dinosaurs and x-rays and such — as “science,” but by ten years of age people tend to distinguish between the object of study and the method used to study it.

        A number of the Dawkins fans in the replies seem to think this is a non-issue or a cheap shot. It’s actually what I work on. Here’s a short explanation of why the socially constructed nature of science matters. No postmodernism. I promise.http://ctbergstrom.com/understanding-science.html …

        Which is why it is important to distinguish advocates and investigators.

        He’s also technically incorrect on some points. For example, dinosaur truths were not truths before dinosaurs evolved. And so on...

        Absolutely. Sure, we really hope to get at these transcendent truths or whatever. But saying we can avoid epistemic baggage, especially regarding the sociology of science and the society it is embedded into, is conveniently forgetting our humanity...

        Why read books when you can traffic in rape apologia and be applauded by the culture as a brave heterodox.

        OBVIOUSLY by “science’s truths”, I meant the truths about the real world that science aspires to find, NOT scientists’ beliefs during any particular historical era – phlogiston, etc. My point was only that there’s such a thing as objective reality – denied by postmodern pseuds.

        I wasn’t aware that science was attempting to find the truth about the real world. Scientists are, which isn’t the same thing.
