You mean there is no difference  between (say) Pinker & Summers on the
one hand, Levins, Lewontin, & Gould on the other? You take your notion
of science from the likes of Summers, which puts you on his side of the
argument.

You have, I fear, a kneejerk response to the word "science," and run
around pasting that label on everything you don't like, whether it has
any connection to serius science or not.

But the scope and limits of science, as well as conceptions of what it
consists in are all controversial, and usuing "science" as you use it
generates intellectual confusion.
