We're learning more and more about the mind and human behaviour, with real science and empirical data to back it up. The gulf between the deeply politicized social sciences and genuine science is getting wider and wider. Much of the content taught in sociology, etc is as arcane and woolly as traditional religion.
Spent a lot of time in social science faculties recently have you there, Cliff? This trite wouldn't make the reading lists of even the fringiest of gender studies classes.
