No Single Theory Ever Agrees With All

There Is No "scientific Worldview" Just As There Is No Uniform Enterprise "science" - Except In The Minds Of Metaphysicians, School Masters, And Scientists Blinded By The Achievements Of Their Own Particular Niche... There Is No Objective Principle That Could Direct Us Away From The Supermarket "religion" Or The Supermarket "art" Toward The More Modern, And Much More Expensive Supermarket "science." Besides, The Search For Such Guidance Would Be In Conflict With The Idea Of Individual Responsibility Which Allegedly Is An Important Ingredient Of A "rational" Or Scientific Age.

What Is Surprising Is That Almost All The Trends That Developed Within The Sciences, Aristotelianism And An Extreme Platonism Included, Produced Results, Not Only In Special Domains, But Everywhere; There Exist Highly Theoretical Branches Of Biology And Highly Empirical Parts Of Astrophysics. The World Is A Complex An Many-sided Thing.

The Only Principle That Does Not Inhibit Progress Is: Anything Goes.

One Might Get The Impression That I Recommend A New Methodology Which Replaces Induction By Counterinduction And Uses A Multiplicity Of Theories, Metaphysical Views, Fairy Tales, Instead Of The Customary Pair Theory/observation. This Impression Would Certainly Be Mistaken. My Intention Is Not To Replace One Set Of General Rules By Another Such Set: My Intention Is Rather To Convince The Reader That All Methodologies, Even The Most Obvious Ones, Have Their Limits.

No Single Theory Ever Agrees With All The Facts In Its Domain
