It's so funny, being in an MS program while being skeptical of it all. There are much better ways of finding out the information you get from science, that tends to be more harmonious as well. Not to say you don't get any useful information from science. But if all this energy went to internal investigation and meditation (etc) instead of research, we'd be in a much better place and have even more valuable information. I just laugh at some of it. You do all this work, but there are so many places to make mistakes, and you might not get anything in the end. By not even considering that there are other ways of getting knowledge, you miss out on so much. It's so self-limiting.
The other problem with science is that your expectations do affect to what you get to a certain degree. Sometimes it's not enough to affect the results so the results are still meaningful. But sometimes it's just totally altered, albeit not always on purpose. The question you are asking, your framing, the inherent worldview, the limitations of what you can measure make a lot of the data worthless.
