I am not sure if the glass analogy is appropriate.  I merely
wish to provide a viewpoint that will enable awakening (as
I see it of course), from the faith in science above all.  Many
seem to use scientific arguments as if they cannot be questioned.
Such "truth" is analogous to religion.

But I do have faith (as it were), and do not see humanity as a
hopeless lot.  From up here on my pedestal I see hope.

It seems to me that you are not really complaining so much about science as
science education. We live in a world that is based almost entirely on
science and technology. Most people apparently and unfortunately do not
understand diddly squat about science. They accept on faith that their cars
and TV and computers work for reasons. For those people, the majority in
fact appealing to science as a "reason" is not much different from claiming
God made it happen. The use of either is just a way of putting their minds
at rest. But this is a problem of public perception and not of science or
the scientific method.
