Re: very interesting .
desdemona,
​
Scientists start with the assumption that observation is true and then come up with conclusions.(by crashfrog)
​
Why would they have to come up with something?
​
It's called inference. You accept neutrons exist, I presume? No one has ever seen one. They are inferred from other observations. All science does this.

Re: very interesting .
desdemona,
​
I don't see God in all his glory,but I believe I saw his son.
More blessed is the one who has not seen yet still believes.
​
And what does this have to do with the hypothetico-deductive method, exactly?
​
More stupid is the one who believes without evidence.
