I joke that I know nothing about statistics because anthropologists think statistics are a tool of the man, but the more I see how many other social science fields do it, the more I wonder if that's not kind of true.

From the point of view of a statistician... all of the social/behavioral sciences are fuzzy anyway. We aren't sure why they bother using statistics at all. I've yet to encounter someone in that field who seems to understand what they're doing in applying a statistical model, though they can describe in great and agonizing detail which model they want to apply.
