Summary/Abstract: The author claims that the whole of modern and contemporary science as popularly understood and generally presented to Western college and university students is essentially connected to, essentially depends upon, utopian socialism as a historical/political substitute for metaphysics to justify the false claim that the whole of truth is contained within modern science generically and specifically understood. According to the author, failure to recognize modern socialism for what it chiefly is (a metaphysical, not economic or political, fraud that has been, for centuries, the chief cause of modern forms of totalitarianism) is one of the most dangerous mistakes made by modern Western culture.
