It is the test of true philosophy that it leads to the discovery offacts, and facts themselves can only be known as such; that is, can onlybe properly discerned and discriminated by being relegated to theirplaces in philosophy. The whole progress of science depends primarilyupon this relation between knowledge and philosophy. In the earlier history of mankind philosophy was the product ofsubjective reasoning, giving mythologies and metaphysics. When it wasdiscovered that the whole structure of ...philosophy was withoutfoundation, a new order of procedure was recommended--the Baconianmethod. Perception must precede reflection; observation must precedereason. This also was a failure. The earlier gave speculations; thelater give a mass of incoherent facts and falsehoods. The error in theearlier philosophy was not in the order of procedure between perceptionand reflection, but in the method, it being subjective instead ofobjective. The method of reasoning in scientific philosophy is purelyobjective; the method of reasoning in mythology and metaphysics issubjective.
