Quick! Define "science"

The objective description of reality.

[Anonymous No.1158264]

in short... it's just classification of everything

[снайпер No.1158286]

Science is using the Scientific Method to explain and predict the natural world.

Engineering takes what Science has explained and makes things out of it.

You don't understand what science is.

A hydrogen atom is made of a proton, and an electron. Water is two parts Hydrogen, one part Oxygen.

These are objective facts. It doesn't matter if you're a rust monster, a super intelligent computer, or a person. Water is still H2O, and Hydrogen is still made of a proton and electron.

That seems pretty subjective to me.

[bmo No.1158439]

The most basic definition I can come up with:

Observation and logic to determine the nature of the Universe.

Your basic aboriginal spear chucking hunter is a better scientist than a creation-science douchebag. If he doesn't think logically and observe, he goes hungry.

To troll creationistfags:

Since creationistfags take the Bible so literally, ask your favorite creationisfag this question:

"So what's the oldest profession?"

Predictably the answer will be "Prostitution"

Nope.

Science predates *women* according to the Bible. The first thing God had Adam do (according to Genesis) was Taxonomy.

This allows you to justifiably say to your annoying bible thumper "You ignore God's creation at your peril"

The only subjective part is the words used to describe it.
