The belief that science is not merely a powerful method for [understanding] the natural world, but the supreme, only legitimate form of knowledge, and that those who disagree are [intellectually] inferior. Scientific supremacism elevates science to an absolute authority, ranking it above philosophy, art, religion, tradition, and personal experience. It often comes with a missionary zeal to "enlighten" the uneducated masses. This ideology is not science itself but a political stance that uses science's prestige to dominate other ways of knowing. It is the epistemological equivalent of racial supremacy: one way is held to be inherently superior, and others are deemed primitive or [pathological].
