Science as a method is a universal tool though. And if one branch needs protection from intruders by the other critical scientist.. Maybe it just ain't science, but a religion performing cargo cult mimicry for clout.
- EvgeniyZh 3y agoModern science requires not only universal methodology but also large amount of domain-specific knowledge
- onetimeuse92304 3y agoScience as a method is not a universal solution to problems. For example, a scientist who starts talking about politics is usually well outside his/her area of competence. A scientific method does not seem to lend itself to solving political problems.
- resoluteteeth 3y agoThe scientific method is about performing experiments, not about making YouTube videos. If a scientist who is an expert in one field decides to make videos on other fields, they are not applying the scientific method, they are doing the same thing any YouTuber does.
- snapplebobapple 3y agoThe scientific method is just an empirical method for acquiring knowledge and they certainly can apply the scientific method outside their field (indeed they really should when doing a literature review to inform their opinion on the subject). The credentialism in this thread thread is utterly out of control.
