SACRED COWS (Continued from page 10) |layman may well raise his eyebrows when, particular- ly, the applied sciences claim to be above criticism. If he is middle-aged he can remember some curious contradictions. Babies were fed by the clock 25 years ago; conscientious mothers regarded any deviation from this "scientific advice" as a serious failure. | Today, with the same authoritarianism doctors have reverted to the techniques of an earlier era. The clock has been replaced by the squawk. Applied psychology periodically comes up with jsome doubtful theories. The personality tests used to select American civil servants are currently getting a |going-over by both Senate and House of Representa- tives' committees. Is asking highly per sonal questions jan invasion of privacy? Suppose you concede the righ fof a scientist to ask, "Did you ever have an illicit sexual experience as an adolescent? Do you believe there is only one true religion? " What are the norms? If the tester favors promiscuity you get points for straying; if he doesn't you get points for chastity. Similarly with the question about religion. What happens to infallibility here? We are deeply indebted to the scientific investigat- or. He's vitally important to us all but nobody needs to bow too deeply before the test tube and the ques- tionnaire and their white-coated priests.
