I could have put that truth, or meaning, or value, is the only goal, but, normally, with what follow, i.e. “science is the only mean”, people should understand that this assume the minimum spiritual maturity of those who knows that in the religion domain, the argument-per-authority is not just not valid, it is catastrophic. > >> >> Science is the only mean. > > And every person is an end. Absolutely. Which should invite to be skeptic on all metaphysics which threat the existence of persons. Theology is today full of BS, not because theology is BS, only because theology has been separated from science, with the goal to use it as a way to control people. The prohibition of medication, and the idea that a government can have a word on this, in place of you or your doctor, is the same phenomenon. It is how liars get power, by appropriating the domain out of the serious and modest inquirers. The USSR did that with genetics, because theology was already just forbidden, and materialism (even the strong version) was obligatory. It is always the use of the argument per authority, in place of questions and other questions.
