The redneck strike again.

And are you just going to ignore the rest of my post. You know, the bit where you asked a ridiculously stupid question and I answered in full and showed what a half-wit you are?

Have you met enrico before?

Fortunately no, just indulged his desire to shout his fantasies at atheists over the internet.

Sigh. Perhaps if you had studied 5-6 years at university you'd understand what science is! As it is you clearly don't. What you're describing is trial and error. A mouse in a maze does that. The thing is enrico, things (like science) have determinate meanings and definitions. You don't get to make your own. That's why people do those degrees you mentioned. Also why we have dictionaries textbooks and shiz. The scientific method is a relatively recent development, certainly within the last 500 years. What you think of as science, observing patterns and drawing conclusions, is a different thing, and is observable in animals and children. It's gotten us a long way, evolution wise, but whatever you might think of it, it's not science. That's a big part of the reason that we've advanced so far in the last 200 years.

Science come from the Latin scientia and means knowledge so it is a way of pursuing knowledge.
It does not means small or big knowledge or old or modern knowledge.
The original meaning does not discriminate.
Now, if you want to change the rules of the game and give a different meaning at this word please do so but don't come to tell me that you are correct when in fact you are dead wrong.

I'm not telling you I'm correct. I'm telling you to go read a dictionary. That a book (not your forte I know) which tells you what words mean.

Scientific method

Noun :-a method of procedure that has characterized natural science since the 17th century, consisting in systematic observation, measurement, and experiment, and the formulation, testing, and modification of hypotheses.
"criticism is the backbone of the scientific method"

I'm taking my definition of science from that, and other stuff I read (much of it during my degree). You appear to be making yours up as you go along! Words have definitive meanings Rico, you learn what they are by reading science books.

[Little Rik]

What the hell are you talking about? Bankers and economists aren't scientists. That whole paragraph is totally irrelevant. Also, science has nothing to do with capitalism, I really don't know where you got that from. Corruption, price fixing and hoarding of commodities.....again, irrelevant to science.
But the reason we have pollution and wars over resources is because science doesn't have all the answers yet. But they are advancing.
Where is the good in science you ask?
Well, the internet for one, is a creation of science. The very reason you can express your ridiculous assertions to us is because of science.
Also, medical breakthroughs, vaccines and treatments for disease, genetic illnesses, cancer, aids, typhus, cholera, dysentery etc.
The reason we have sewers, clean water to drink and food readily available is due to science.
Transportation. Due to science, we now have vehicles that can travel the globe in a short space of time. We can go places that 150 years ago, no one could. We can trade valuable resources with other countries.
We can genetically engineer crops to be more hardy and nutritious, that helps 3rd world countries like places in Africa and india.
The car or bus or bicycle you take to your hospital is a result of science. The drugs you administer to patients, are a result of science. The medical equipment you use to save lives is a result of science.
We can transplant organs for Christ sake! Need a new heart! Sure here you go! How about a new lung, kidney, liver. So when you ask, where is the good in science? I want you to understand just how stupid a question that is. You should be thoroughly embarrassed. You take for granted everything that science has done to improve your life.

You still float in the sewer.
You never grow up do you?
You haven't got a clue about the difference between stay afloat
and progress.
Physical science is not only good in some instances but necessary to keep us afloat.
Keep us afloat is great but it is not progress.
Progress is when you are able to get out the trouble waters
once and for good or in your case out the guttering.
Life is hard from the first breath to the last.
You can discover so many things and you can
do so many things that help to keep you alive but at the end
you will never be able to beat mother nature and find
total peace of mind and happiness by using physical science
so at the end unless you use a different method you will always
try to stay afloat and that is hard no matter what the latest scientific knowledge can do for you.

What bullshit are you talking about?
The method of procedure goes back to the cave man when they discover the fire.
After observing the lighting, after trying and testing and modified they finally
came to the conclusion that it is by rubbing two dry sticks that the fire started.
Forget about your 17th century.
Science goes back million of years.

Sorry enrico the dictionary trumps your stupidity any day.You need to grow up the rest of the world and accept evidence and SCIENCE.Provide empirical evidence or SHUT UP.

on a side note-How much do you pay for heisenburg's blue meth enrico?It cant be too expensive considering how much you use.

Guys, just in case, you know you're conversing with a literal asylum patient don't you? I mean, ricky Martin is actually in an asylum.

They let him use it for an hour day because of good behaviour.

If he tries to escape again though these privileges will be revoked.

We humans are here to eat, sleep, fuck, and make babies so that they will grow up to eat, sleep, fuck and make babies. And then, die.

Everything we do (and I mean everything) is solely for the purpose of ensuring that this cycle goes on and on and on.

Communication is merely a part of the mating ritual, along with dancing, and becoming successful at what we do in order to attract a better mate.

So, we smoke and drink and eat too much. So what? These are necessary evils used for population control, just like war and car accidents and natural disasters.

Any attempt as stopping smokers, drinkers, and the like will only make us live longer and reach that point of over-population where it will be too late to turn back. When we reach that point we will kill and eat everything that walks, crawls, swims or flies. Then we'll turn on each other for food.

It is imperative that we live and let live so that we can live and let die sooner.

This is what life is all about, and nothing more.
