Thanks for your paitence Erin - you clearly have more than I do - I'm
impressed :-)
So (IF its of any value),
No reason to limit what science is permitted to "explain"
And, in explaining,
No reason to restrict science to logical-postivist reasoning
(objective empirical tests of "scientific method" joined-up
exlcusively with syllogistic logic.)
That's all I'm claiming - so far - just a level playing field.
So whether one sees onself as a "scientist", a "philosopher", a
"theologist", a "poet" or a "fjord designer" - the only test of truth
is the "quality of explanation".
Game on.
Ian
