Scientism isn’t perfect, but it’s way
ahead of whatever is in second place.

“Scientism isn’t perfect”

It’s just imperfect, it’s fallacious. After all, scientism posits that science alone is sufficient to answer all questions, yet science operates based on a priori assumptions that aren’t supported by science. So if scientism is true, then the axioms underlying science are untrue. It’s a self-contradictory position.
