Referring to the accepted model of science the author questions the fundamental thesis of current pragmatism, namely the claim that the privileged epistemic status of scientific and philosophical knowledge has to be abandoned. This claim puts on the same footing all types of human knowledge and treats them as linguistic games without hierarchy with regard to epistemic values. By application of such standards science becomes a matter of opinion.
