ryokan said:I agree generally , excepting your consideration of science as a philosophical discipline . I believe that Science, in its method, differs of Philosophy, at least, in two aspects: Method and consensus. The scientific method, born from Philosophy, is now independent. Consensus is based in the communication of evidence using a common language, as mathematics. Philosophy have, as I see it, more personal scores.
The assertion that the scientific method is now independent of philosophy, in itself, is a philosophical idea. Certainly it is not a scientific fact. :tongue2:
