Given that many of my disagreements with the local atheists hinge on their cultish and non-skeptical acceptance of scientific results and me, therefore, accusing them of "scientism", I found this article helpful. In this forum, we talk a lot about how science journalism reports results (hyped or not even wrong). But even *if* a "Science News fanboi" does a good job parsing the difference between the journalism and the actual content of a journal article, there are still plenty of caveats to any lab, research project, or entire domain that can color its produce. So, I tend toward cynicism when reading any science whatsoever. That said, I think I *am* guilty of something like this _Weak Scientism_, for better or worse. -- ☣ uǝlƃ ============================================================ FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College to unsubscribe http://redfish.com/mailman/listinfo/friam_redfish.com FRIAM-COMIC http://friam-comic.blogspot.com/ by Dr. Strangelove
