Science Is About What Is the Case

Many open problems about the human mind and knowledge creation are sometimes regarded as not interesting by some scientists. This is because of a prejudice that affects the sciences in much the same way that prejudices of other kinds affect religious thinking. Some retreat to the domain of reductionism and materialism, denying that knowledge is a phenomenon requiring an explanation. Others simply ignore the question, thinking that it goes several steps too far, into stuff that is not proper science.
