科学思维的核心是抽象和分析，但这种方法有效的前提是要穷尽所有影响因素。在一些方面，我们比较接近这一理想，但在其他大部分方面是无法做到的。这就意味着，我们可能武断地忽略了一些因素，但它们却至关重要。而当我们终于定位到这些因素时，局面已无法挽回，这是反科学主义的核心顾虑。我们当然不能抛弃科学思维，但却应该保持谨慎、警惕和开放性。在这一点上，老子“知其白，守其黑”的思想非常具有启发意义。科学主义使得现代的我们过多地生活在抽象的世界中，而忽视了生物的本能和复杂！
The core of scientific thinking is abstraction and analysis, but the premise of this method is to considering all influencing factors. In some cases, we are closer to it, but in most others we are not. It not, we may ignore some factors which are crucial. And when we finally locate these factors, the situation is irreversible, which is the concern of anti-scientism. We can’t abandon scientific thinking, should remain cautious, vigilant and open. At this point, Lao Tzu’s “Knowing the white, yet keep the black” is very instructive. Scientism makes us live too much in an abstract world!
