Any affirmation of ideals and values is inherently self- referential in nature. Intellectual statements about ideals and values are not affirmations of them. To engage in making extended intellectual statements about certain ideals and values is to make an affirmation of the value of spending one's limited time and energy engaging in dispassionate intellectual consideration of other's ideals and values. Such behavior does not avoid making any affirmation of ideals and values; it is the affirmation of the ideals and values which affirm the worth of such behavior. Such behavior is not an intellectual analysis of the ideals and values which justify such behavior, which affirm the worth of the behavior. By their statements and behavior scientists affirm the value of objectivity and analysis; however, they do not analyze and evaluate the ideals and values which justify their dedication to objectivity and analysis. It is logically impossible to objectively analyze the reasons for one's own commitment to the ideals of objectivity and analysis. To those who have made such a commitment with great passion it is taboo to non-objectively participate in the consideration of the consequences of one's own commitment to objectivity and analysis. It is taboo to analyze the objective evidence of the consequences of that commitment because such an analysis can not be conducted in an objective way and so to carry it out one must transcend the ideal of objectivity. If objectivity is the ultimate ideal it can not be transcended because there is no basis for transcending your ultimate ideal. If no ideal is affirmed as more important that objectivity then objectivity may naturally be regarded as the ultimate ideal and serve as the focus of a collusive idolatry. Scientists neglect philosophy because they are required to by their commitment. (c) 2005 by Paul A.
