THIS is how you do science

  • A false hypothesis remains false no matter how many people say it is true.
  • An unproven hypothesis remains unproven no matter how many people claim it is proven.

That is how science SHOULD be done.

In the real world, with just a couple of small edits, we see how it is ACTUALLY done:

* A false hypothesis remains false no matter how many people say it is true, unless those people are politicians.
* An unproven hypothesis remains unproven no matter how many people claim it is proven, unless you are a scientist depending on grants.

CR.

I does show these days there are few scientists who are not corrupted by money.
