Scientism is a term applied to science when it becomes an all-embracing ideology that attempts to deal with areas of life outside its own parameters of measurement, prediction and control. When science starts to embrace matters outside its area to do with religious systems, goodness and truth, science is said to have slipped into scientism. It has over-reached its proper concerns to become a quasi-religion. The scientology religion is an example of such transition. New trends in the philosophy of science have questioned some of the scientistic assumptions of positivism, namely: there is an external world that can be fully explained in scientific language; that language stands in a one-to-one relationship to the facts; the facts can be fully discovered by observation and experiment; scientific observation and experiments are based upon what our senses can reveal, scientific theories are built up by the accumulation of more data; these theories are objective and not reliant on personal predilections; and the scientific knowledge that results is proven knowledge of the world as it objectively is. Science is an earthly knowledge and its validity lies in the world only. The elements are opposite in construction to that in Heaven. Therefore science shouldn’t claim validity in what is a metaphysical speculation.
The Bible gives a guide to ethics as the basis for the doctrine which is important to the life of the community. Good and evil is far more important than scientism which is unopened for the insights. We cannot think about heaven and hell in scientism. This is why secularism became an alternative to religion. Science and religion is to be seen received from God expressing his compliment. So that to have a pleasure in life and to deal with crises more effectively.
Ideas according to the Bible culture originate from vision and vision grows like the flowers in the dark with love in the heart. Vision knows exactly where to stand no matter what runs against it. We don't know the message that goes into the vision. The brain of the gifted one has jewels stored for going ahead, not staying in a locked circular path. Science is the mover after the brain recoils the firing signals to score the good results. God is the commander in chief, to those men who can do God’s idea in partnership. The fool is the fisher who just attempt to catch without real ideas.
Science has different agenda than faith in ego. One puts its thinking on ability to produce more results in publications. The other is considering eternity to avoid the great trouble of hell.
Charles Darwin in “Life and Letters” volume 1 (1887) said: “in my most extreme fluctuations I have never been an atheist to the sense of denying the existence of God”.
If you try Archaeology to test the truth of the Bible, your attempt would finish with arguments. Ask two archaeologists working on the same subjects and you will probably get three opinions. Cultural anthropology can put it in context when we attempt to explain the culture in terms of what religion has done to their intellectual state. A religion becomes under judgments when it is piled by bad work is. It is the religion that took them out of the contest to be a waste. The religion has the numbers but never saw the light. This is not lucky and unlucky but rather blessing and curse, when unable to meet the standard.
The Bible in its laws and values make up the Christians ethic that form the treasure of knowledge and to remain as the real evidence of Christ.
We can go to the moon but we cannot be dualistic good with God.
