philosophy

A scientific worldview is an objective approach to the realities of the world. As soon as objectivity begins to be replaced by stereotypes, science dies. And the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries were a time of flourishing stereotypes. For example: "Progress is linear and limitless," "Everything in the world is knowable; nature is a workshop." I'm not even talking about ethnic and racial stereotypes. The peak of this undoubtedly occurred in the 20th century, when two trends emerged: "Capitalism is evil," "Socialism is the spawn of hell." In general, the scientific worldview died with antiquity. And only some scientists tried to revive it.
