We
belong to a society which devotes enormous resources to scientific research.
When
something happens we ordinarily look for an explanation in terms of causes.
Most
of us do at least some science at school.
Science
means 'knowledge' and we all know at least something.
In what sense might it be said we are all scientists
today?
All of these sound defensible to me, although (1) isn't very
relevant to the point I was trying to make in the presentation and (2) would
mean that we are all religious too ...
The argument I was trying to put is summarised by (3). In
the medieval world, when something unusual happened people typically wanted
to understand what it meant (eg was it a punishment, or a warning?).
Score?
