Thinking about the work of Max Weber, more specifically, in The Politician and the Scientific, this understanding and analysis exercise is carried out around the evolution of the routine of the Philosopher and the Scientific in contemporary life. The analysis is aimed to the supposed "death of philosophy", deducted by Stephen Hawking. It is shown the way as the philosophy, the science and the universe increase with the time its complexity, and the way its evolution is incorporated in a dimension increasingly wide of the reality. Reality that we appropriate according to our level of understanding, by two movements that are "one": «knowledge of being» (possible for life and presences) and «know the world» (scientifically valuable). Today, the Philosopher resounds with the first movement and the scientific with the second one. It is understood that the hypothetical evolution of consciousness is the combination of two movements: a humanist scientific knowledge of who we are as a species and as individuals.

Palabras clave : philosophy; science; knowledge; evolution; scientific humanism.
