I beg to differ - Although Anti-Science is commonplace it is not pure as it can rarely exist in a pure form without being contaminated with Science:
For example, in using math to formulate how much Anti-Science you have, you are using not only a science, you are using a pure science - this immediately degrades the purity of Anti-Science. As most Anti-Science exists within the laws and constraints of the physical world, sciences like Biology, Physics, Chemistry, thermodynamics etc, even further degrade the Anti-Science. I'd be surprised if there was an example of Anti-Science more than 45% pure, and more likely much much less, maybe even in single figures.
Lets look at a case in point - an Idiot hitting a can of WD40 with a stick until it explodes:
On the surface this seems totally Anti Science, that's a damned stupid thing to do... but to hit the can the idiot needs Science to invent, formulate and package WD40 for him. He also needs nature to use the science of Biology to make the stick for him. Finally the idiot needs to utilize muscle energy to move the stick, leverage to multiply the force of this muscles via the stick applied to the can into kinetic energy which pierces the can which then converts the chemical energy contained within into heat and light. And fire. Lots of fire. He even uses Science to extinguish his burning clothes by dropping and rolling.
The only part of that whole situation that was Anti-Science was the idea to hit the can with a stick in the first place to see what happened. That wasn't Science, and the Gods of Anti-Science will have accepted his burnt eyebrows as a grateful sacrifice.
