    Scientism (from Latin scientia science, knowledge) is a mindset that presents scientific knowledge as the highest cultural value and a sufficient condition for human orientation in the world.

    The original term was also proposed by philosopher N.N. Strakhov (1828-96) - enlightenment - belief in the omnipotence of human reasoning and adoration, reaching idolatry, in front of the achievements and conclusions of natural sciences.
