Yep.I'm confused.
.. (which is untestable in science).You think humans may have invented apples? I don't have an actual test, other than some poetry:
Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.
Size makes no difference to the principle I've outlined.Okay I agree with that, when it comes to really small things and really big things and really old things. But not apples or 2+2.
Nope .. speculation isn't an observation. Its an idea.Well you have to observe something before you can speculate about it.
Science starts with a tentative, (speculative) statement about such things as maybe being part of objective reality. Once 'unicorns or space aliens' is defined (somehow), a scientific thinker would attempt to test those definitions. Clearly those definitions would fail and therefore would not proceed further in rising to being considered as being part of science's objective reality.I mean sure, you can speculate about unicorns or space aliens, but not when you're doing serious science.
Those steps I just described, is what demonstrates the scientific method in action .. and therefore, that is doing serious science.
But wait isn't this thread about science trivia??
Persisting, consistent evidence that only an active human mind can generate.I don't know what you mean by "fingerprints".
I'm sure you weren't. But I assert your claim arises only because you apparently haven't taken off your 'Post Modernist' philosophical detecting sunglasses! So take 'em off pplease .. its your choice because I didn't ask you to put 'em on in the first place because they are irrelevant in scientific thinking!When I said you sounded post-modern, I wasn't kidding.
Yep .. he certainly sounds to be a trivial player!There's this self-proclaimed post-modernist professor named Thadeus Russell who claims the Pythagorean Theorem isn't true, because it's just "something some guy made up".
