But the idea of science is to create a structure of thought which forms a system unified by a method to reduce it all to the minimum laws possible and those are then processed to apply in the practical world according to social needs.
How can such thing happen if to start with the structure of thought doesn't form a system (Which is what happens when there are contradictions) nor is unified by a method (which is what happens when the are unknown variables) nor is reduced to the minimum laws possible (which is what happens when we want to predict more than the necessary) nor are those then processed to be applied in the practical world according to social needs (which is what happens when capitalism invents necesity and when the practical world is no more of necessity)? It can't.
