The final part of science, then, is giving up paradigms which have been falsified. Astrologers... refuse to do this, to put it politely.

- claudiawerner 8y agoI agree! But the popular conception of science as merely something falsifiable doesn't include that condition - my whole point here (which for some reason people are downvoting me for...?) is that Popper's definition isn't sufficient, because it both includes pseudoscience (astrology) and excludes legitimate (exploratory) science.
