Zetetic Method:

WYSIWYG

[jroa]

Scientific Method:

My teacher told me this, so it must be true.

[AMann]

Scientific method:
You need the ability to question to be objective.

[markjo]

Scientific Method: preconceptions meet verification.

[Pete Svarrior]

Zetetic Method: abandon preconceptions, facts trump belief

[markjo]

Zetetic Method: What am I trying to prove?

[Pete Svarrior]

Scientific Method: Reality bends to our will.
Scientific Method: Counting to five is hard.

[markjo]

Scientific Method: Counting to five is hard.

Yes, it is. 

Zetecic Method:

Results backed by court of law.

[Pete Svarrior]

Scientific Method: Ignore chronology and new data

[markjo]

zetetic method:

modern medicine in general.

Double blind studies are Zetetic?

Double blind studies are Zetetic?

Since nothing has been proven using the zetetic method, they need to post lies... don't let it get to you lol

[LuggerSailor]

Zetetic method: Can't produce a working map.

zetetic method:

modern medicine in general.

Double blind studies are Zetetic?

Certainly.  I'd love to hear how you think they are not zetetic?

Double blind studies are Zetetic?

Certainly.  I'd love to hear how you think they are not zetetic? 

Double blind studies generally start with the hypothesis that the medicine being studied works better than a placebo.

Double blind studies generally start with the hypothesis that the medicine being studied works better than a placebo.

They are then analyzed without any preconceived expectations about that hypothesis being allowed to influence the results.  Double-blind studies effectively take the inherent bias out of the scientific method, and it's that bias that zetetics criticize about the scientific method more than anything else.  For sure, they are an example of applied zeteticism at its finest.

Zetecic Method:

Results backed by court of law.


Scientific Method:

Quickly, must wave hands harder!

Zetecic Method:

Ignores the court ruling it was not considered an enforceable contract because it was a wager and the court transcripts were witnesses stated the curvature was adequately proven by Wallace. Focuses  on just that the court ruled in Hampdens's favor and not why he won since it is evidence against FE.

Scientific Method:

Wallace used a method verified by others many times before and after he won the bet.

[jroa]

Scientific method:  I read it in a book. 

[rabinoz]

Scientific method:  I read it in a book.

I refuse to believe that you can read and if you can't read, the Zetetic method must be better because that works better if you can't read.

[Pete Svarrior]

Wallace used a method verified by others many times before and after he won the bet.

Only accurate on a technicality. Since he never won the bet, what happened "before" and "after" follows the train of thought of "if false, then P"

[Rekt]

Psh. Fine, I'll try.

Zetetic method:

Antibiotics -- several millennia before science.

What antibiotics? When?
