Re: What is Science?
Well, mister cynic,
what if you had spent your life as a carpenter, designing new homes, cabinetry and furniture that delighted the senses, and this had earned you recognition as a great architect, a great artist and an acknowledged master on all the different kinds of woods and their attributes -- and one day, someone comes up and says, "carpentry is just whittling wood!"
To top it off, this someone with the cynical attitude has never built a house, a cabinet, a chair, and had only watched somebody whittle just once.
How seriously would you take this someone?
How would you answer?

What concerns me is not the way things are, but rather the way people think things are.
