D. Real Science and Pseudo-ScienceThe senses are magnificent instruments of observation according to Nietzsche. The nose is more sensitive than a spectroscope, yet it has not been taken seriously b philosophers. Science is fruitful on to the extent that it accepts the testimony of the senses, extends their reach, and thinks through them. Would be sciences that disregard the senses falsify the world such as metaphysics, theology, psychology, epistemology. The “formal sciences” of logic and mathematics do not deal with reality at all. Logic is namely a system of conventions for using signs. Mathematics is merely applied logic.
