When will psychology finally be recognized as a pseudoscience?

RE: When will psychology finally be recognized as a pseudoscience?
Well...some of it has been, and it's been the recognition of that and a commitment to change it that characterizes psychology as a science in the 21st century. Remaking themselves from the study of mind to the study of behavior (though they may soon reframe it as the study of mind again as diagnostic tools improve).

Alot of the so-called "soft sciences" have been tackling this dilemma. Archaeology was bible and spade for centuries. Turns out that meant centuries of mistakes and fundamental misapprehensions. Now they're pointing satellites at the desert and picking up trails that half a dozen people over the span of a millennia may have used.
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!
