I would have thought you are a little bit smarter than that Pinky.
Quote:Science as we know it had an extremely slow start, but long about the 1100s is when you really start to get people thinking and working like modern scientists, and from that point on there's an explosion of knowledge that eventually drives world religions to dire means just to stay afloat (as indicated by the modern state of apologetics and the fact that in the Western world it's no longer appropriate to torture and slaughter "infidels.")
You say....1100s.
I say 7000 years ago.
Sure, we are all guessing as evidence doesn't come easy after so long.
Look at the ayurvedic science just to mention one.
It is so old that nobody really knows how old it is.
Some say 5000 years old, other say 7000 and Shiva is the inventor.
And what about the 7 notes.
Also the music is a science and again according to the legend it was Shiva that gave them to humanity.
Quote:I don't give a butt whether you are interested or not.
The reality is very clear.
Science started long long before this modern world and science always refer to a system of acquiring knowledge without limits about the source of knowledge.
Quote:No, again, that would be philosophy. Philosophy is the study (or any particular study) of ideas about knowledge, truth, the meaning of life, etc. It doesn't generally concern itself with actual evidence unless a specific philosophy calls for it (whereas science, on the other hand, DOES). The word you're looking for is "philosophy" if you refuse to use one like "superstition" or "religion."
Pinky, you haven't got the slightest clue about the meaning of philosophy so please refrain from using this word
until you make some progress in this field.
Quote:There is no such a thing as the actual science.
Science is one and the meaning of this word is one whether is in the modern English or the old Sanskrit.
Quote:So what's the word for "science" in Old Sanskrit, then?

Quote:Yoga is not a religion and has never been crushed by anybody.
On the other hand a lot of physical so called evidence has been crushed and end up in the
rubbish bin of history.
Quote:Yoga: a Hindu spiritual and ascetic discipline, a part of which, including breath control, simple meditation, and the adoption of specific bodily postures, is widely practiced for health and relaxation.
Key words: Hindu, spiritual, ascetic
Ok, if you don't want to call it a standalone religion, it's at least a component to a religion. I realize people can do Yoga exercise without being Hindu or even considering the spiritual component, but that doesn't dismiss the fact that you seem to be using the term in some spiritual sense when it comes up, and spirituality is pretty much a supernaturalist thing. Naturalists concern themselves with positive mental health instead of fictional mental health. Spirituality, like god, deliberately dodges scientific scrutiny, which is a pretty good earmark of something that's unlikely to exist in the non-imaginary sense.
Once again you haven't got the slightest clue about yoga and Hinduism
so please refrain from making guessing after guessing.
Yoga is pure spirituality while Hinduism is a religion.
Yoga came first and Hinduism follow but after so long pure spirituality changed
and gave way to ritualism which in practice is worth next to nothing.
