Scientific Fundies

Scientism is a type of fundamentalism where science is the religion (Milgrom, 2010). A significant problem with scientism is that its believers are often even more arrogant than religious fundamentalists. Perhaps worse, they don't even acknowledge that their belief system is a belief system. This problem may explain the lack of humility of many doctors and scientists. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/dana-ullman/medical-research-lies-dam_b_555525.html
