Science in the form of scientism and materialism loses sight of the fact that mathematics is an immaterial abstraction of physical reality abstracted by the mind, which is also immaterial. Might not other immaterial knowledge domains exist besides math? Employing the common ground of the scientific method and realism, a historical approach will be taken to detect and correct failed directions in the development of science . Extra-scientific beliefs like immaterial causes can then be accepted from philosophy and theology as guidance to understanding the unified and objective truth in nature. Might not intelligence exist that transcend our own?
