The reason why humans want to classify things, define boundaries, create absolutes, construct fields of contrasts and promote an awareness to logical and purposeful conclusions and facts, are pretty much very obvious. Its a trait of the human being that is etched in us conciously and unconciously, and one can answer the necessity of Definitate Science, essay style, overpouring with several interlinked factors. Yeah, there is that model answer. But anything else?

The most basic factor that occupies the air which the concept is surviving in, is the thing about ease. There would be a greater ease in futher studies, a better environment to research and develop on while theres the textbooks of information based on the respective chapter in the world of science. With technology doing the party quest with it, the whole thing about information that is properly organised would be reachable. And thats the thing that matters. When the thing is reachble, then humans can go out there to build on it and save more, kill more, bring comfort to more and distress more. There would also be ease for those who are passionate in the sciences. With the help of definations, it would be much more easier. For instance one guy could quote, 'Alloy has no formula, therefore mixture.' Its considered speaking layman while having the essence of science jargon in it. One would be able to determine that the 'formula' he refers to is a chemical formula and that 'mixture' his talking about is two substances physically combined together. Alloy is of course defined as a mixture that consists of a metal combined with another element, usually also a metal. Science jargon, terms and research-cum-analysis-therefore-interpret situations have allowed the human race another language, and therefore, another playground. Well, ease is in fact a very good, and probaly a good enough, reason for the way of the sciences today.

Another case study of why the offical sciences function as such can be infered when we look at the upcoming trend of 'pop science'. I'm especially ashamed of pop psychology, party because when the science is not that recognised and go surfaced on towards the entertainment hub... well. Not to say pop psychology is wrong or anything, but as the summary of the conversation I had with my dad this morning would put it, pop psychology is nonsense.(e.g. stuff like how the shape of your face relates to your character, how the position you sleep at at night relates to your personality etc.) I do wonder how they get get the 'scientific results' from their studies... From statistical feedback? Go check my recent rant on feedback in the Archives. And well, if for some reason I had forgotten to state, statistical feedback is dependant on several factors and circumstances. I suppose thats sorta obvious, but well, the paper stuff is still moving around. I understand political correctness value... but well.

Things would also be alot more efficient with the official science. You can probaly get no where with philosophing about stuff and asking the meaning of life in the many variations. The stuff that are abstract and not solid but more based on unfounded and running thought flows would get someone no where. Like Zoneseeking... (yeah.. sad.) I have found an irony in the thing about physics, being a subject that is relating to the physical world and its aspects, and where stuff can get really run-around and abstract, physics in the official manner actually demands accurary. Its probaly the only paper that has you to put the .0s after your numbers to show that the value is only an approximate as random errors will screw you up in the pratical, making your answers less accurate by 0. -infinite number of zeros here- 1.

But then, science cannot always answer everything. Doing things the offical way with research, analysis, concept-building and solid interpretation, don't always work. Let me end this with some cheesy style:

The way the body works
Biology

How sound gets to your ears
Physics

Identification of a aqueous substance
Chemistry

When Singapore became independant
Social Studies

Reason of why.
Zoneseeking

There are some things absolutes can't buy. For everything else, theres Science.


(If you didn't get it, it was the mastercard joke)

Yeah... I know I'm late since the joke has be exhasted to the max.. and that didn't make much sense anyway.

Oh wells.

Conversational (From Friend)

"You see those coins there? They carry the burden of intergrity and honesty. You know how heavy that is?"
"No."
"You don't know how heavy that is?! Your not human!"

Nah. I think that 'no' is a very normal reaction and answer.


For humans.
