In the popular view of science, scientists are, objective and reliable agents who are committed to a common scientific endeavor with a shared basic scientific picture. The ideal Bayesian view is sharply different. It permits scientists to be eccentric human agents who work on the edge of what is known. These agents are sometimes biased and often lack objectivity. However, the methodology of proofs and refutations, experiments and replications will eventually separate out the nonsense from what will become solid scientific knowledge and it will overcome scientists’ tendency of self-deception and even occasional cases of intentional deception. Scientific methodology is the invisible hand which allows the imperfect input of individual scientists to slowly aggregate into our joint common scientific knowledge.
