I fail to see how this school of thought [scientism] can produce a democracy in which individual rights supercede those of society. Just because it doesn't come naturally to you doesn't mean it's not possible. So we are to tolerate another grand experiment of scientism. How many hundreds of millions of human lives are to be sacrificed this time? And who gets to decide who should be sacrificed? edit: I am not saying you have to be a theist to be a citizen or a supporter of rights. Just that science should not govern. On this, I am with Neocon, the philosophers should govern.
