fran give me a sec

2019-12-14 00:33:41 UTC  

ok

2019-12-14 00:33:42 UTC  

I'm just explaining what science is since you clearly know nothing about it

2019-12-14 00:33:45 UTC  

A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world.

2019-12-14 00:33:51 UTC  

Did it go over your head?

2019-12-14 00:34:03 UTC  

snort has no idea what he is talking about

2019-12-14 00:34:06 UTC  

don't fret too much

2019-12-14 00:34:16 UTC  

alright maybe I was the wrong word

2019-12-14 00:34:21 UTC  

I meant theorem

2019-12-14 00:34:26 UTC  

proven facts

2019-12-14 00:34:29 UTC  

theorem is a mathematical term

2019-12-14 00:34:35 UTC  

then its theory

2019-12-14 00:34:36 UTC  

no one says 'physical theorem'

2019-12-14 00:34:42 UTC  

there are two defs of theory

2019-12-14 00:34:53 UTC  

scientific and normal

2019-12-14 00:34:58 UTC  

I'm using the scientific

2019-12-14 00:35:02 UTC  

proven facts

2019-12-14 00:35:07 UTC  

yeah the scientific definitions is "A hypothesis we have very high confidence in"

2019-12-14 00:35:14 UTC  

no it isnt

2019-12-14 00:35:17 UTC  

Yes it is

2019-12-14 00:35:20 UTC  

No

2019-12-14 00:35:34 UTC  

the bar for very high is: Peer review, Fits with background data, predicts other phenomena, ect

2019-12-14 00:35:43 UTC  

we proved our facts with equations

2019-12-14 00:35:43 UTC  

This is a 'theory'

2019-12-14 00:35:55 UTC  

It has to have observational and mathematical proof in order to be a true theory

2019-12-14 00:36:00 UTC  

You don't prove anything with your equations, they are substantiated about other presumed axioms

2019-12-14 00:36:07 UTC  

equations that you plug variables into and solve

2019-12-14 00:36:11 UTC  

But theory is just our best approximation

2019-12-14 00:36:13 UTC  

not for all theories

2019-12-14 00:36:17 UTC  

Presumed axioms we only have high degrees of empirical confidence in because we can't be certain about their truths

2019-12-14 00:36:18 UTC  

but for some

2019-12-14 00:36:22 UTC  

like acceleration

2019-12-14 00:36:46 UTC  

some parts of science aren't completely proved

2019-12-14 00:37:04 UTC  

It’d be hard pressed to get any real scientific community agree with your theory if it has no mathematical proof

2019-12-14 00:37:04 UTC  

BUT we don't base our ideas off of that unless it's just pure speculation

2019-12-14 00:37:06 UTC  

you need the empirical evidence after the equations that can predict your guess, it should be very precise

2019-12-14 00:37:17 UTC  

what we're talking about now isnt speculation

2019-12-14 00:37:17 UTC  

For example, we know the mass in F=ma and the mass in F = Gm1m2/r^2 are the same to something like 1 in 10^20 parts

2019-12-14 00:37:24 UTC  

this is insufficient to call them the same thing

2019-12-14 00:37:25 UTC  

River you don’t even believe in science lol

2019-12-14 00:37:26 UTC  

it's the part of science that is proven
