Re: What is Science?
I believe part of your problem is the word "merely" in that opening sentence. Science is about much more than a collection of facts or definitions, much in the same way that a house is much more than a collection of bricks.
Science is a process by which well-defined and falsifiable predictions are put forth to explain the behavior of the natural world, where those predictions are tested, false hypothesis discarded, and every idea scrutinized. These predictions are consistent and repeatable by others with differing views.
Your assertion suggests that science is a dictionary, but it's not. It's a process... a methodology... and a rather elegant way to further our understanding of the way reality behaves.
