You think science is only 1% of the world? As someone with a computer and
mobile phone and TV and washing machine and so on, I find that science has
made quite a large contribution to just about every aspect of my everyday
life.

But of course that isn't what you were thinking of. The "dominant
metaphysics" on Earth is religion, which is person centred, especialyl when
it comes to saying what people can and can't do. But I'm still not sure
it's at 99%, even so.
