It has been about 14 million years since mankind came into the world. In that long period of time, human beings have been continuously producing knowledge. The prompt said “The main reason knowledge is produced is to solve problems.”, and I mostly agree with it, but first I will discuss this statement from different perspectives using the examples from Natural Science and The Arts . In Natural Science, there are many inventions that were discovered to solve a problem. Many of today’s inventions had many limitations when first unveiled. That is why scientists are always trying to solve them by using reasoning and experimentation to make improvements. For example, the printing press was invented in order to meet the demands of a cheaper way to read a written text such as books and written records used in governments and businesses. In the fifteenth and the sixteenth centuries, the Renaissance was spread to European countries especially in Italy. Because of growing economic prosperity, schools and colleges…
Science is capable of explaining and verifying many things, but it cannot explain or verify everything. The word “science” comes from the Latin word “scientia” which means “knowledge”. Science is the knowledge and study of facts in the natural world and the process of experimenting and observing the facts in order to draw generalized conclusions. Science is made up of the knowledge revealed to and discovered by mankind. This is why science cannot prove everything, because we do not know…
Science & technology Science is a way to study the tidal aspects of nature in an organized, systematic, and scientific way through scientificized scientific methods that are visible, touched, heard, touched and felt. But keep in mind, what is true today may be less precise in the next 1000 years because science has a long and delicate process. Technology is the whole means to provide goods that are treated for the sustainability and convenience of human life. Technology is the application of…
I believe art must work in unison with science to generate a synergistic effect that improves the health conditions of humankind. Previously, I was never convinced that the sciences had any relationship to paintings, sculptures, or art in general. I have often associated scientists with words like “analytical” and “innovative”, and artists with “creative” and “expressive,” clearly distinguishing the roles they play in society: art as a subjective reflection of the world through different forms…
Science produces validated theories and is capable of making models that lets scientists build new things and sometimes predict natural events that doubtfully affect everyone. Science is unique because it is a specific way of developing knowledge. It can determine what is accepted as real and probably to predict how we live our lives. Science can tell us what is true. The era that we’re in right now is the era of science. I believe science has done a great service to the world. We are rational…
Creation Science Versus Evolution Science One of the most debated subjects in our society is the issue of evolution science verses creationism. The debate of Ruse versus Laudan gives an overview of the major issues between the two topics. While Ruse and Laudan both argue against Act 590, which, states that a balanced treatment of creationism and evolution science should be taught in the public school system, they drastically vary in viewpoints. The aim of creation science is to provide an…
Are Science and Biblical Faith Compatible? The response to this question will vary largely depending on who is providing the answer or what aspect of life and/or world view is being considered. Many people believe that biblical faith and science are mutually exclusive or total enemies, if you may. However, very few understand that modern science is a product of Christian world view and that it cannot be taken away from biblical faith. In the aspect of human existence, it is difficult for one to…
Science has changed the way the human race lives, their everyday lives. Everyday society encounter different and new technology because of science. Everyday scientists are coming up with more and more theories explaining the world. Science has been apart of the human race since the beginning of time, science will also remain in the human race's life till the end of time. According to Webster dictionary science is “knowledge about or study of the natural world based on facts learned through…
Science: Facts Making Theories or Theories Making Facts? Are scientists using the facts to form the theories of science or are they making theories then hoping that the facts fit the theory? If the facts do not fit, does science pursue the facts and the root of the facts searching for truth or do scientists ignore the facts if they do not fit and instead pursue to prove their theories by other means? Science has always been a field where the inquisitive may go to seek truth and to pursue…
In a period when financial severity is at stake, we get ourselves debating on what is worth spending cash on and what isn't. Projects need to legitimize their presence and those projects that are seen as subordinate or pointless get the hatchet. Tragically, science -that doesn't have an immediate usefulness in practicality- is seen as an exercise in futility and waste of cash. In the United States, NASA can be an object of this level headed debate. We ought not to be investigating the close…
