Your Definition
A form of moralism emerging from positivist philosophy—the view that only scientific knowledge is genuine knowledge—where those who rely on other ways of knowing are treated as [morally deficient]. The positivist moralist insists that science is the only path to truth, and those who walk other paths are not just mistaken but [irresponsible], lazy, or irrational. Knowledge gained through tradition, experience, intuition, or revelation is not just different but illegitimate, and those who claim such knowledge are not just wrong but blameworthy. Positivist moralism transforms a [philosophical] position about the nature of knowledge into a weapon for judging persons, using "unscientific" as a term of moral condemnation rather than descriptive classification.
