No, all of them.
Rather a sweeping generalization, the sweepingness of
which gets to the heart of the philosophy of science, and its
fundamental difference from religion.
Prove me wrong with a working example.
More specifically, no such statement can be made in
science, but is often made in religion.
No, it is not a sweeping generalization in the context that it is stated.
Science is *not* a method of hammering down loose nails;
it's a process for discovering which nails might be loose.
That's true, but how is it relevant to the discussion at hand?
Thanks, as always,
