    why this need to separate facts from science. just seems gay and sets off my bullshit-dar.
    Oh really, the more lies the merrier is not retarded in your book Hat but sharing the fact that there is no such thing as scientific fact you call retarded and after I took the time to answer a question you requested an answer too and stressed you really needed an answer. I guess I answered it much better than you anticipated ...

    That's because bread (different types even) are successful formulas hence fact and not science. You might not admit it but I think you get it subliminally at least.

    That's what the inverted commas mean. Hypotheses that have not been disproved over a fairly long period are the nearest we get to facts, ever.

    I just don't get your passion in this. it seems like it is a process, of observing, hypothesisizing, experimenting, calculating, refining, in ideas and matter.

    what's the harm if I go through life thinking it's a process? a scientific fact process?

    thought experiment a:

    if you had a kid, and it came home from school and said, " mommy/daddy, today I learned that facts aren't scientific!", would you feel good about that education?

    Nope. No theory is ever proven True. Science does not use supporting evidence at all.

    Insults are a fallacy, dude. Science has no proofs. No theory, whether a scientific one or not, it ever proven True. Science does not use supporting evidence. Only religions do that.

    A hypothesis is not a theory, nor turns into a theory. They stem from theories, not the other way around. An example is the null hypothesis of a theory.

    The harm is turning science into a religion. Only religions use supporting evidence, not science.

    Either recognized as falsified or recognized as fact, almost (the process incomplete) doesn't qualify as fact.

    If something is recognized as fact, it is fact..by definition. The moment someone does not recognize the fact, it is no longer a fact. It becomes an argument.

    Science has nothing to do with it.

    edited this in fyi "The harnessing of electricity was a science until harnessing electricity became a successful formula thus a fact we harnessed electricity thus no longer a science but a fact. From there what to do with the electricity developed successful formulas which became fact such as the light bulb, radio, television was no longer a science because it became fact. Each new design for each new tv, radio or light bulb for example became fact through a successful formula. You want to create a new television, the science is making a successful formula and once the formula is successful, it is no longer a science but a fact that from that point that the tv exists."

    As a person educated in science I can say, without reservation, that this is one of the most wacked out and illogical examples of a circular reasoning logical fallacy I've ever seen. Jeffery...I'm sure your family and loved ones have told you this many times already but you really need to seek professional help.
