Science

Science is supposed to be objective, true.  “But I would also reject any claim that personal preference, the root of aesthetic judgment, does not play a key role in science.
…the stereotype of a fully rational and objective “scientific method,” with individual scientists as logical (and interchangeable) robots, is self-serving mythology.” - Stephen Jay Gould

We place ourselves, our biases and predilections into everything that we say, do and write.  There is no objective reality common to all.  Our ideas come from the lens of our inner self.

Of course, now in the 21 st century we must ask: are we better or worse for it?
