Document Summary
We"re very scientific, but where"s our humanity gone (that others still have)?". This course considers both story and see what they share. In both cases, both science and magic are distinctive and they"re like polar opposites. The anthropologist"s story: the other stories are wrong. It"s hard to say without comparing it to magic and religion. They used to dismiss his ideas for 100 years before science took it up again. Because in one instant it was considered false: as well, yesterday"s science also became today"s magic. Ideas that were once considered truth are now discredited and hence considered magic . Depending on which point you"re viewing, this may be considered magic or science. It"s just not possible to know because like science, it"s exploratory and there"s just no way of knowing these things. Summary: because there"s no such thing as magic or science, there can be no relation" between them.
