WHAT DOES “SCIENCE” MEAN TO YOU?

You see, when you hear the term “Science” you think about the via-positiva: the problem is, the method of doing science in each field differs. When I think of “Science” I think about the via-negativa: the due diligence necessary to warranty your speech against ignorance error bias wishful thinking, fictionalism and deceit – where the way of doing science in every field is the same. So in my understanding, one gives testimony using science, meaning evidence, reason meaning deduction from evidence, and reciprocity, meaning ethical and moral. So Science: existential, reason: logical, reciprocal: moral.

Again: Science, Reason, Reciprocity.

Science:
… Externally Correspondent
… Operationally Consistent

Reason:
… Categorically Consistent
… Internally Consistent

Reciprocity:
… Rational Choice Consistent
… Reciprocally Consistent

And;

Complete:
… Parsimonious
… Fully Accounted
… Coherent
