An untruth (or lie) is not knowledge and therefore cannot be construed as science.
Questionable. An untruth known not to be true can be knowledge since it delimits what is true. An untruth not known not to be true can be a part of science.
IOW adding extra baggage to science, as in "only natural explanations are allowed" was never part or parcel of what science is.
Does not follow. 'adding extra baggage to science, as in "only natural explanations are allowed" was never part or parcel of what science is' is an unsupported asserion and, indeed contradictory to Joe's, Loudmouth's, and Unseul's messages (without actualy responding to them). Sorry, logically you don't get to establish your argument by assertion and igmore everything others have written ... this is a
discussion group.
So let's see some support for that assertion.
BTW, got any response to
Distinguishing Pb from Pb????
