Science is not a fact
Is science a fact? No, it is not.
Is science fact-based? Yes, it absolutely is!
To establish, if a scientist is doing science, we only need one thing to be sure about. A scientist is someone that tries to find new facts.
Now, let that sink in.
Suppose, you have children, okay? And they're between 0 and 8 years old or something.
Is your child running in to a tree, and finding out that it's a bad idea to do so, science?
To you, maybe not. But to said child, it absolutely is. That child just discovered a new fact of life! Therefore, knowledge has been gained!
It may sound strange, but science is not about scientists.
Science is about discovering new facts of life.
And that's all that is to it. You don't need to be some fancy-schmancy person wearing a white lab coat, to discover something new to you! And who knows, maybe, you discovered something that's new to everyone on Earth?
Trust me. I know science. And physics. And nuclear physics. If you see me running, you're best off trying to catch up with me.
