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.

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.

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.

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"
