Well, that's the whole point. It is a pseudo-science. Anthropologists and sociologists entertain the fantasy that they are doing science because they are envious of the successes of physics and chemistry. And this attitude has now infiltrated the humanities. And it has turned the humanities into a school of political propaganda.

It depends on which type of anthropology you're talking about. I dated a cultural anthropologist once, and I told her I was heavily interested in the application of evolutionary theory to communication and rhetoric. She said "Oooh, I don't really like that kind of theory. It's not egalitarian." I asked her what thinkers influenced her and she said "Gunther Stent! I loveGunther Stent!"

She didn't kiss me goodnight...
