I’ll take scientism over whatever is in second place.

It's not a question of science vs. everything else. The question is, is scientism alone sufficient to give us material truths about phenomena and sufficient insight about transcendent Truths regarding human behavior. It's not an either/or issue. Blind faith in science is as myopic as blind faith in anything else. It needs to be complimented in order to be as complete as humanly possible. Surely you can see that.

Yeah, you’d probably confess Marx and Comte, too.
