Science gives us theories not facts like so many try to tell us. Evilution can not get past the green button, test with an experiment. It is still a half baked theory.

We should stop conflating poorly constructed statistical constructs with science.

Especially in the Social “Sciences”.

True “scientific method” work, I’m fine with.

Statistics has it’s place but it’s only one tool of the scientific method and should not be confused with the “Scientific Method” itself.

In my statistics class for Engineers and Scientists the instructor, on the first day of class, said, “figures lie, and liars figure. In this class we will learn how to determine lies and who the liars are.”
