Abstract

There has existed a growing tendency on the part of various intellectual and scientific circles within the realm of social and natural sciences in recent years to put forth some of the arguments over emphasizingly conveying that we are approaching the end of science and scientific methodologies based upon conventional postulates and presumptions, positivist tenets and underpinnings grounded in secular world order and mere mundanity; that is to say, scientific methodologies dwelling upon paradigms of mechanistic world views have been bound to collapse with all their outputs and outlooks, and might not have always yielded to good results, but rather, they might have ironically turned out to bring about some unpredictably catastrophic consequences. In tandem with these premises, in the argumentation developed throughout our manuscript ,"The End of Science And Scientific Methodologies", it has been tempting to say that we are in a drastic need of a brand new rhetoric and metanarrative far from mechanistic and deterministic undertones but founded upon interdisciplinary means and modes which might transcend time and space, respond to the various requirements of human civilization on earth as well as help us propound a more aesthetical narrative of human existence and achieve a much greater ontological frontier.
