The historical overview of scientific philosophy & worldview

Abstract:
The scientific worldview today represents the culmination of human thought and a reference used by all the philosophical, ritual, mystic and even mythical worldviews. It emerged following the introduction of Copernicusand Kepler’s theories on the world’s helio-centerism, and expressed itself through the publication of Galilei’s Dialogo sopra i due massimi sistemi del mondo (1632) based on mathematical concepts and experiment, declaring the decline of the traditional worldview and the Scholasticism; whilst ‘Pères de l’Église’ of the Roman Catholicism perpetuated the reactionary, anti-science and anti-rationalistic nature of Christianity through inquisition, persecuting and torturing the rationalist scholars! However, with the Pope’s desecration and the decline of Catholic domination over culture and thought, the Age of Enlightenment and the epoch of science and rationalism began as a result of the works of René Descartes and his contemporaries Francis Bacon and John Locke, which finally gave birth to the European scientific and industrial revolutions and inception of industrial capitalism of the Modern era. The historical upshots of the development of sciences have been information revolution, invention of artificial intelligence and robots, the control theory, and preparation of cybernetic principles as well as a massive evolution in energy economics and management, and electric and electronics industries, all of which furnished the scientific and industrial jump of the man with unimaginable dimensions in the twentieth century that allow us now to speak of a scientific philosophy that has turned our view from the creation of the world towards the origin of the life and its dispersion across the world; that intermittently works hard in every aspects to make possible man’s eternality; and, indeed, that should always fight with ignorance, superstitions, dogmatism and dogmas! The fundamentals of the scientific philosophy include: scientific worldview, scientific ethics, scientific logic, and scientific social-political project.
