In that case you are redefining what universe means because the universe is everything that is. Therefore there can by your definition not be a supernatural.

Science, whether natural or unnatural, isn't constricted to observation and recording, all sciences get applied and used. Medical science wouldn't be any use if all it did was explain why we were sick and not develop medication for example.
This is so typical of the theist mindset. They see science as yet another religion but don't understand that it is more than a set of teachings precisely because it gets used and therefore tested, validated and improved. They typically don't understand that the modern world wouldn't actually exist if things that they claim were correct.
Nope. It's really quite easy to look up these terms. You should try it.
Quote:Applied science is a discipline of science that applies existing scientific knowledge to develop more practical applications, like technology or inventions.
Within natural science, disciplines that are basic science, also called pure science, develop information to predict and perhaps explain—thus somehow understand—phenomena in the natural world. Applied science applies science to real world practice. This includes a broad range of applied science related fields from Engineering, Business, Medicine to Early Childhood Education. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Applied_science
Your last paragraph is utter nonsense and a product of your imagination. You clearly do not even understand basic terms all throughout this thread.
Coming out with dictionary definitions ignores the fact that I am correct in that all sciences get applied. Sure yes some fields of science have more real world applications than others, but the whole reason for any science is that it is relevant and useful to the real world, otherwise it's philosophy.
What you are demonstrating is your binary religious thinking in saying that some sciences are applied and others are not.
Tell me of a scientific field that is not applied. As far as I can tell the only one anyone could possibly be able to suggest (for the moment) is astrobiology.

But hey, fuck me, right? What would a scientist know about science? Fucking crazy /s
Same here. A professional scientist and R&D engineer being told that I don't understand how these terms actually get used.
