    1. O.E. Petrunya in the article “On the subjective and objective causes of modern science crisis” considers the source of pathological disease of scientific activity at the turn of the XX – XXI centuries, based on the paradigmatic methodology proposed by T. Kuhn. Following the author, a modern scientist, devoid of elementary philosophical reflection, turns into an infantile solver of minor, highly specialized puzzles. In a crisis of paradigm, the scientific community clings to far-fetched quantitative methods for assessing the effectiveness of scientific research. The main trend of our time is the substitution of knowledge by design, research by creating artificial entities, comprehending the truth by modifying reality to the demands of the global establishment. Most of the diseases of modern science are of Western origin, so overcoming them is seen as a rejection of erroneous philosophical grounds and an appeal to the Christian matrix of understanding the world.
