        @neiltyson So being a scientist, to you, is a philosophical distinction rather than a job title? Anyone could be a "scientist?" I like that

        @neiltyson I like to say I practice Scientism, which by dint of not including a god hypothesis, is an atheistic philosophy

        @neiltyson Cop out. Words mean things; reject them or not, there is a word for whatever you believe (or don't). That's what language is for.

        @neiltyson @krmalite Are you certain you would not concede to being an anti-philosophical labelist?
