Postmodernist Nietzschean that I am, I must reluctantly inform you that science is an ideology. Sorry.

@RichardBSpencer i think the proof is in the pudding. and if science gets man to mars, then science is more than an ideology. (^_^) -
@hbdchick "Science" is a) the disenchantment of the world b) scientific methodology as the One, True Perspective, above all others. -
@RichardBSpencer well, i don't know what "a" means. =P but insofar as "b" gets man to mars, yes that's science and no it's not an ideology. -
@hbdchick Ideology is something deeper than the slogans of regimes. I mean the cup that holds the water, the ideas that structure ideas. -
@RichardBSpencer sure. and the ideology of science is the scientific method. but science, itself, is an enterprise. not an ideology. -
@hbdchick The ideology of science is something like, *All existence can be categorized & manipulated so as to increase human happiness.* - 2 more replies
