Thread: Science vs Pseudoscience

There is no difference, sorry but to many things that have been considered "Hard" science have been dis-proved with more study, and the opposite also of too many things that have been considered stuff of legend and lore have been proved....

I think Science is an ongoing search that really never can end....

There is a difference, but you just beautifully described the way science (no need for capital S I'd say) works: It describes the ways things work, based on fact and insight. If new information comes to light, it'll be subjected to the scientific approach and if the outcome is that established insights need to be adjusted, they are adjusted.

In my view, it's the beauty of the system. I also feel that the far majority of pseudoscience does not endorse these adjustments.

There might be something to describe "all" knowledge, but that'd be academic, so basically there's not a lie in that.
