Stephen, scientific method, for Peirce at least, is conscientific method. http://www.gnusystems.ca/TS/gds.htm#cnsc
gary f. From: Stephen C. Rose [mailto:stever...@gmail.com] Sent: 3-Oct-17 09:41 This makes you wonder why Peirce is not understood to be a moral philosopher as much as a partisan of the scientific method. I doubt that he would see the two things as distinct. Everything thus far in this discussion seems to point toward Peirce as the champion of a philosophy of progress based on moral principles which are effective agents within an individual capable of accessing and responding to the prompts of conscience. One cannot help requiring the seminal question of the lawyer who brought McCarthy down -- Have you no conscience, sir?
