[ExI] Science or Scientism?

[Will Steinberg]

Or, conversely, maybe they noticed that human bodies decayed into an
inanimate object--dirt--and also that humans are conscious and experience
qualia, and so (perhaps not in a completely unfounded manner, ask any
panpsychist) determined that the sum total of all objects (including humans
as well as inanimate objects) had some sort of consciousness as well.

Modern humans love to pretend ancient humans were stupid--as if humans 1000
years from now (if extant) won't think the same about us.
