As Golding said, scientists are very naive in some ways. The world and society as a whole are extremely complex levels and it is simply impossible to accurately predict the far future. People are constantly changing and doing things unexpectedly. Most scientists want to believe that there is a formula and a strict order in which things are happening. However, as we know there cannot be a scientific and mathematical formula used to explain why everything in the world happens and why everything happens whether it be good or bad. There is more that goes into things than just numbers and variables. Treating the world as if there is no complexity in it is simply an act of naiveness. It shows that they are either oblivious to this or chose to block it out of their heads that sometimes, whether the situation be good or bad, things happen that the scientific and mathematical worlds cannot come up with a precise reasoning for. This does not mean that the events are illogical; it just means that they are on such a complex level of life that it is impossible for humans to wrap their minds around why things happen or sometimes even how. There are still phenomenons that happen in our everyday life that i believe humans will never fully understand.
