To do better science, admit that you’re not objective
I don&#x27;t disagree with the article. But I have a long-standing problem with this post-modern representation of &#x27;objectivity&#x27; as binary.<p>Yes, the tiniest bit of subjectivity makes something nonobjective. Okay, there is absolutely nothing objective. But things can be more objectively true than others. Science is more objective than theology. A spherical Earth more than a flat one.<p>Treating objectivity as binary, to constantly make the point that nothing is objective, invites the conclusion that everything is equally subjective. Which is nonsense. I&#x27;d like to see us move beyond this black and white model. Post-modernism made some good points (e.g. that those who claimed we could get to 100% objectivity were wrong). But being post-post-modern isn&#x27;t the same as rejecting them all.
