How Science Got Sound Wrong

Most definitely not an English majors? OK. Let me guess, History major? Am I close? I thought we got rid of that “you can’t prove anything” philosophy when the Beatles broke up.

Any so called fact is already theoretically ladder, implicitly or explicitly, and any "solid" fact is reducible to some ladder where consciousness meet "something else", a phenomenon,  which is not a thing, but already a signification... My humble opinion and I am not alone with that.... My best...

We all know the fate of any thread when people actually argue about what is "science".  As they always say, ... yeah good luck with that.  I think I'll go watch my paint drying.

I think you are not wrong...I apologize and wish you a good paint drying...My best to you....

Yeah me history, that thing that Foucault somewhere in The Order of Things called the mother of science...it also could have been referred to as the queen mother of science....but its been a while.

That being said he was an outlier....though his ideas are pretty good at dealing with cultural history, which is kinda complisticated, on several levels.

In the field of philosophy this is not so, despite philosophy being the primary discipline in which he was educated, and with which he ultimately identified. This relative neglect is because Foucault’s conception of philosophy, in which the study of truth is inseparable from the study of history, is thoroughly at odds with the prevailing conception of what philosophy is.

And....

Science is concerned with superficial visibles, not looking for anything deeper
