    The sciences are important because we need the ability to describe how things are. The humanities are important because we need the ability to imagine how things might be.

        The humanities are important because they determine what ‘science’ means.

        Lol, no. Science is anything that can use the scientific method to come up with scientific theories. Humanities have nothing to do with it

        Logic is part of the Humanities. Science depends on Logic. Also, what does it mean to Know, what is Evidence, what is the relation between perception and fact.... these are the humanities. Every word you use to describe science, wat science is, is the domain of the humanities

        Logic is a Greek word and traces back to Aristotle. Nothing to do with humanities. Also, science doesn't depend on logic it depends on the scientific method. For logic the axioms are arbitrary, for the scientific method the only thing that matters is empirical results

        Nobody says they matter. Science doesn't need to matter, of you think it matters then it does.

        Because they can produce reproductive results that let us predict certain outcomes. Their value is not on some silly humanities theory but on their actual application to reality, something humanities are completely retouched from

        Fun fact: In Germany we call the humanities 'mental science' and science 'natural science'.

        STEM elitists lack understanding of the world. If you don't value the humanities and social sciences, you shouldn't discuss politics.

        I innocently stumbled in to the comments to admire & enjoy how this idea so succinctly sums up my love of both, being both a biology & philosophy nerd, and found world war 3. I'll never understand why some people feel the need to put others down to make themselves feel superior.

        Science also gives us the ability to imagine how things might be. But unlike humanities, science is effective and it's not ideologically driven. Humanities are completely baseless and that is why they can't produce reproductive theories. They are bscly secular religions

        Give me an example of non science neutrality. I mean I know it's hard to justify your therapeutic feminist dance degree but c'mon, science neutrality now???

        Hello, Stefadiddle. Do you happen to be, by any chance, a fan of an individual whose first name is Samuel (Sam) and last name is Harris? Just curious.

        To an extent. I do recognise his logical fallacies about morality though. He is bscly a naive utilitarian and takes his implicit axioms as objective, why you asking?

        This is actually hilarious. You're plainly a disciple of an (unorthodox, largely academically rejected) philosophical way of viewing the world and defining particular ways to "know" it and you're insisting that such a conception doesn't even exist up and down the thread lol.

        What's hilarious is being so stupid as to think that calling things unorthodox actually makes a point.gove me specific examples about me being wrong and your arguments...
