Hmm. What is the difference between ‘science’ and ‘pseudoscience’?
It may be helpful for me to understand what you are talking about if you could attempt a definition of what you mean by the terms. Or, if you could list some characteristics of each so that I can come to understand the terms as you are using them by comparing and contrasting them with one another.
The terms ‘science’ and ‘pseudoscience’ are often bandied about but with no clear meaning assigned to them it is difficult if not impossible to assess what someone means when they label certain claims or theories as being ‘scientific’ or ‘pseudoscientific’.
I am sorry that you are not feeling well.
Just post when you are up to it.
I hope you feel better soon.
