Then you detest every scientific theory ever devised.
- JabavuAdams 14y agoThis is a bizarre claim. My motivations for doing science are to understand, to create, and to stroke my own ego.
- Jun8 14y agoIf you comment was not in jest, can you elaborate on why you think so? One can argue that all scientific theories are motivated to a larger or lesser extent by the prevalent world view of their day. But arguing, e.g. the Standard Model in physics is influenced by the politics of its day (~70s) is indeed bizarre.
