Question Numbers: 91-99
There are no secrets in science. One can do and know all that a scientist does and knows. One does not need to have any faith in him as an individual and accept what he says without questioning it. The only thing a scientist asks of one is to base ones characterizes a child on whom society has not yet imposed its beliefs and prejudices, In fact, science is nothing more than questions asked and questions answered, and the method of science, no more than a method of asking questions and answering them, a method that "works" and can be used to solve problems that one faces in everyday life.
Science is indeed, far more than just physics, chemistry, biology, astronomy and mathematics. It is a question of ideas and a way of thinking. It is a culture and a philosophy of life, a philosophy which allows us to purpose truth without any prejudgement. What, then, is this attitude of mind, this culture and this philosophy of life? It turns out that all these- and other-concomitants and attributes of science emanate primarily from the method that science uses to acquire knowledge. Certain characteristics of this method, which we call "The method of science", and of knowledge gained by the application of this method, create a value system within their framework, a value system which is rational and reasonable, which appeals to common sense, which is commensurate with knowledge and, above all which has a build-in corrective. It, therefore, becomes especially important to understand the basis of the method of science, and at the value system of science, so that we may understand the culture. One does not need to have any faith in him as an individual and accept what he says without questioning it.
