Science is both a tool and a process. We are very familiar with its function as a tool but its function as a process has not seeped into our consciousness. As a tool it is something that we use to create models of the world around us. As a process it works on us to fit us for our place in the world. Consequently, we serve two distinct roles in this reality.

It is important that we understand and appreciate the difference between those two roles and how each impacts the other.
