Abstract: Economism claims that all human behaviors are economic behaviors, individuals' happiness and social welfare depend on economic growing absolutely, andprogress of science and technology can guarantee economic growing limitlessly.But actually many of human behaviors are not economic behaviors, peoples' happiness doesn't depend on economic growing when their basic need are satisfied, andprogress of science and technology cannot guarantee economic growing limitlessly. Science and technology are not omnipotent. People cannot reconstruct natural environment at their pleasure with science and technology. Science and technologycannot bring human beings to the paradise where they are just happy without anysuffering. The more forcefully human beings intervene the nature, the more severely to be punished by the nature. The feasibleness of economism doesn't mean itcorresponds to the objective laws of nature, but means it submits to human greed. Ecology and the ecological crisis in the world shows that the way of production and living guiding by economism is not sustainable. Economism has a heavy influence in China. But we cannot support economism, and cannot choose the way of "polluting first and then managing”.

Key words: economism, happiness, view of omnipotent science and technology
