Relativism seems to destroy scientific claims to rationality.
This paper shows a way to keep the traditional convictions of scientific knowledge while acknowledging relativism. These strategies we call strangification , which means taking a scientific proposition system out of its context and putting it in another context. We can thus see the implicit presuppositions of the given proposition system by means of the problems arising out of the application of this procedure. Such a change in the understanding of science holds important consequences. There is a personal background for the new understanding of science I am proposing in this article.
