"Science predicts how nature behaves. Philosophy predicts what nature is. Science needs no philosophy to do science. Philosophy however needs science in order to check the validity of the philosophy. If your philosophy contradicts the behavior of nature then your philosophy is wrong. Science on its own can create technology because it studies and predicts the behavior of nature. Materialism is a philosophy that has attached itself to the technological success of science because the dominant paradigm in western academia is materialism. Science needs no philosophy, philosophy needs science."
