Reply to comment by mirh in Logical positivism does not dispense with metaphysics, as it aimed to. It merely proposes a different kind of metaphysics, in which natural sciences take the privileged position once occupied by rationalist metaphysics. by IAI_Admin

A bit of a counterbalance to the pro-science circlejerk might be good for the memeplex we live in. Or, it may not...who knows, who cares.

It's good exercise for the mind!

The quality, self-confidence, and "ambitiousness" of the fan base annoys me, perhaps similar to how atheists are bothered by fundamentalist (or all) theists.

I get where you are coming from, but then you should be attacking self-righteousness, smug and indeed ironically kinda some touch of dogmatism (or if not any, they are there to boast not to actually dicuss).
Counterbalancing jerks by tangentially making another wrong in the opposite direction seems just to call for more vitriol.

What if the actual problem lies where no one is looking: the Normies? 😮
Besides, if the science gang can't take a potshot now and then, maybe they don't have what it takes to hold the throne they somehow ended up sitting in.

I'm not suggesting you to use gloves, but to aim to begin with.
This post has absolutely no positive purpose. It's not a potshot, taking a dent on the pride of pricks or something. It is simply FUD that will deceive a lot of naive people, and irritate everybody else with half a memory on the argument.
It blows my mind it's still up and upvoted.

No offense, but how would you even know such a thing? I bet I know....

Not everyone shares your beliefs. Fundamentalists of all kinds think their ideology of choice is The Best, history is filled with this sort of delusion....it is in our nature.

It's a philosophy forum - jump in and give it a try, you may even have fun!
