What is "science", and is it related in any way to the "Scientific Method"?

Several replies have already been transmitted telepathically.

"Science is not a method."

"Science is not scientific."

"Method is not a chemical."

"Scientific is not a method."

"Scientific is not a chemical."

"Science is not related."

That's a good start.

What would the omniscient gods at Google say?

"What is 'science', and is it related in any way to the 'Scientific Method'?"

Don't worry your pretty little head about it. Google has it covered.

Google says:
"Science is a systematic approach to studying the natural world through observation and experimentation..." (italics added)


This is entirely consistent with what they taught me in the Ivory Tower.

This is NOT synonymous with "a set of falsifiable theories" is it?

Indeed, it seems to describe a methodological approach to studying the natural world. Those "falsifiable theories" would seem to be the PRODUCT of such a process.

Google pivoted and dodged the bullet regarding the "Scientific Method", yet goes on to describe it later in its reply to the query.

Google say: "What is Science?
* A Body of Knowledge (blah blah blah, kind of like a set of falsifiable theories..)
* A Process of Discovery (blah blah blah, sounds like the Scientific Method)
* A Focus on the Natural World (blah blah blah, stay away from supernatural)
* Collaborative and Self-Correcting (blah blah blah, this gets into the "reproducibility" requirement of the Scientific Method)

Relationship to the Scientific Method
* A Tool for Investigation (blah blah blah, not a "set of falsifiable theories")
* Iterative Process (blah blah blah, a process not product theories)
* Objectivity (blah blah blah, a methodological approach, not set of theories)

Key Components of the Scientific Method
Observation... Question... Hypothesis... Experiment/testing... Analysis... Conclusion/Communication..."

My gut feeling is that there is more to "science" than a "set of falsifiable theories".

It sounds like a lot of science has to happen before everyone gets to the point of agreeing on the validity of the theories.

Particularly when they are the kind of "falsifiable theories" that cannot be cited with any reference as having ever been published anywhere.

Even if they can only get published in a "shit rag" such as the journal Nature, they have jumped through the proper hoops to get their "falsifiable theory" out where it can be discussed in any meaningful way, and validated (or not) as per its reproducibility.

Otherwise, you are just talking about religious faith in the omniscience of the Keepers of Scientific Secrets, who refuse to share their sources.

Science is a set of falsifiable theories. Science is not a 'method' or 'procedure'.

"The only valid test is to try to break the theory." - YARP (Yellow And Red Parrot)

And that "climate change" theory got broken by the internally consistent logic..

IBdaMann assures me that as long as your own logic is internally consistent, that's all that matters. Pretty consistent that there is "no such thing" as anything you never learned about. Pretty consistent that words you don't understand can't possibly have any meaning. Pretty consistent that nothing exists outside the domain of your very limited pre-existing knowledge. Pretty consistent that there is NO published source of information that you deem to be scientifically credible. Pretty consistent that no dictionary, textbook, or search engine knows better than you what words mean, if you allow them to mean ANYTHING. Pretty consistent that you do not accept any new information you did not already believe yourself to be aware of. Pretty consistent that your own internal logic provides you with an understanding of "climate change", "thermodynamics", and "chemistry" that is SUPERIOR to any published so-called "scientist".

I will cling to my blind, religious faith in the "Scientific Method". I believe that it is REAL, and essential for understanding anything that can be legitimately called "science". I find safety in numbers as I know exactly where to find no less than a thousand citations in textbooks and peer reviewed scientific pubs to assure me that climate CAN change. And there IS such a thing as biogeochemistry. And that I AM "recognized" as a scientist who made a contribution of lasting significance.

Into the Night, is the so-called "Scientific Method" important in ANY way for what you call "science"?

Is the Scientific Method important to scientists for a reason you know of?

Do chemists ever employ the "Scientific Method"?

Other than "Science is not a method", do you have ANY IDEA what the Scientific Method IS?

So, THAT is as much as you know about what the Scientific Method IS?

You know that science is NOT a method or procedure.

"Nobody ever said that it was, dumbass." - Into the Night


You couldn't even LIE with "RQAA" to pretend that at some time you displayed actual knowledge of what the Scientific Method IS.

Like nearly every other time you are asked to DEFINE YOUR TERMS..

What IS (e.g. "The Scientific Method")?

All you understand about it is that "The Scientific Method is NOT (whatever)"

But you usually just shorten your evasion to "Science is NOT (whatever)"

You must have gotten some kind of teaching award for when you taught science to college students. (I know that I sure did)

You don't have a clue. No agreement is necessary. Science is not subjective and nobody gets a vote. No organization somehow owns science such that their board of governers must somehow approve material to be science.

You are a lot more dense than scientists previously feared.

One interpretation of climate-debate.com history is that I began to post about five years after the trolls drove all the scientists away. And then I, singlehandedly, drove the trolls away. I wish I were so powerful.

No, Google just stopped showing this website among results for searches seeking climate discussion groups, more than two years ago by now. No new members joined the discussion any more. Few old members remained.

The "DEFINE YOUR TERMS!" gang... sort of a "gang", at least in terms of "gang rape" dynamics, but more of a WACKY religious CULT... Well, they were half a dozen strong when I arrived. Now it's down to one and a half.

IBdaMann and Into the Night both replied.

Apparently, the "Scientific Method" is of little importance to "science".

That is what make the brand of SCIENCE DENIAL at climate-debate.com so unique and special, compared to most science denial rabbit hole echo chambers on the Internet.

They have actually redefined what "science" IS.

No "Scientific Method" to mess with. No "research" papers following it.. No papers at all in fact. No books. No dictionaries.

Just a "set of falsifiable theories".

"Science" is NOT a METHOD!
