  • Harmless Naturalism

    Andrew D Cling, Robert AlmederARTICLEPhilosophy and Phenomenological…2001

    Does science have all the answers? The view that it does is known as scientific naturalism or scientism, and is now commonly advanced under the label 'naturalized epistemology'. Scientism holds that the only legitimate claims about the world are those that can be tested by the methods of the natural sciences.

Various philosophers at different times have argued for replacement thesis, but perhaps …

    Open AccessRobert Almeder, Robert F AlmederARTICLEPhilosophy of Science1973Cited by: 1References: 1

    In this essay it is argued that (1) if the process of scientific inquiry were to continue forever, then science would ultimately terminate in the acceptance of a single theoretical framework better than all conceivable others, and (2) there is some evidence in favor of the view that science will continue unto eternity but no evidence in favor of the contrary view. In arguing for claim (1) it is claimed that if we are to understand the sense in wh…
