George Ellis e os limites da ciência

"Some writers claim that there are no limits to what science can do. They are either ignorant or are having you on.
(...)
As our understanding of the universe develops, so does our understanding of the limits on what science will ever be able to do. I leave aside here the question of whether science is reaching its limits in many scientific areas (which may well be true). The point is that the scientific method itself has fundamental limits, and many important areas lie outside those limits. Science can’t deal with values, ethics, aesthetics, or metaphysics, and these limits of science follow from the very nature of the scientific enterprise and its methods."
