Recognizing Scientific Prejudice
“No matter how honest scientists think they are, they are still influenced by various unconscious assumptions that prevent them from attaining true objectivity. Expressed in a sentence, Fort’s principle goes something like this: People with a psychological need to believe in marvels are no more prejudiced and gullible than people with a psychological need not to believe in marvels.”
–Colin Wilson (English Novelist and Writer on Philosophy, Sociology and the Occult, 1931-)
