Science is everywhere? Fuck off!!!Sunnuntai 14.06.2009 21:32

Actually, science is not everywhere. The reason for saying this is that science is not the sun burning brightly because of nuclear fission, or the fact that chlorophyll makes the leaves on trees look green... it's the process by which we actually find these things out. When you 'do science', it means that you use a scientific method of investigation, data collection, data analysis, interpretation to give a theory (a grounded theory, since it is grounded in the data) and then start to hypothesise events that might give support for the theory and experiment to determine whether the theory is true, based on the results of the experiment (the purpose of which is to test a hypothesis). That's what science is, not the activity in the sun or the pigment in leaves... it's the process of finding things out in a systematic fashion.
