Abstract
In this article, I revisit Max Weber's lecture `Science as a Vocation' by considering his position that choices between values are, in the end, irrational. In examining an argument, which he attributes to Tolstoy, on the relationship between modern culture, science and the meaningless of death, I attempt to prove that Weber's position nullifies the premises on which it is based. As a result, his case for the irrationality of values is self-destructive and incoherent.
