According to the following text, answer questions 6 and 7. Knowledge does not consist of a series of self-consistent theories that tend to converge in an ideal perspective; it does not consist of a gradual approach to the truth. Rather, knowledge is an ever-increasing ocean of incompatible (and perhaps incommensurable) alternatives; every particular theory, every fairy tale, every myth, is part of the whole that forces the rest to a greater articulation, and all of them contribute, through this competitive process, to the development of our knowledge. There is nothing established forever, no point of view can be omitted in a comprehensive explanation (...). Experts and laymen, professionals and dilettantes, builders of utopias and liars, all of them are invited to participate in the debate and to contribute to the enrichment of culture. The task of the scientist should no longer be "the search for truth", or "the glorification of God", or "the systematization of observations" or "the perfecting of predictions." All these things are nothing more than marginal effects of an activity to which his attention is now directed and which consists of "making the weakest cause the strongest cause", as the sophist said, "therefore in supporting the movement of set". 6.- Which of the following options best describes the relationship between the content of the text and the title of the work from which it was extracted? * a) The text introduces the proposal of a new method for scientific research, different from the traditional one
b) The text attacks different ideas about what the so-called scientific method consists of.
c) The critical text conceptions of scientific knowledge, which has been conceived as a result of a method
d) The text argues in favor of the plurality of methods available for each science to achieve its truths
