My point is that p-values are science. A paper which calculates p-values, like my paper, is scientific, even if it is wrong. A paper that doesn't calculate p-values is not scientific.

So, it’s better to be scientifically wrong than non-scientifically right?

Cool.

Since "non-scientifically right" means "accidentally right", yes. Don't you agree?

Fractal wrongness appears to be the name of the game at this point.

Why would I be "fractally wrong"?

It might be genetic or it might be environmental.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Do you think knowledge can be based on an accident? That knowledge based on an accident is real knowledge? In our philosophy classes, we defined knowledge as "Justified true belief that is not based on an accident.".

What do you mean? I asked you "What makes you think I am fractally wrong?".
RE: Names of places in Croatia
Just couldn't say without access to the p-values. I do wonder what the odds are that your being fractally wrong is a coincidence.

If I accidentally burn my hand at the forge, how is that not knowledge that forges are hot, but working out the temperature differentials scientifically is knowledge?

I suspect your philosophy class is garbage - there’s a LOT of disagreement among philosophers as to whether justification is a requirement of knowledge.
