Yeah, you are not the universal nature of science. You just claim so. But you can't understand that, because if you say it, it is true.

Good question. I have no idea what he's talking about either.

Here is a book in Danish: Humanistisk videnskabsteori. The ISBN is 9-788711-348529 And yes the words are in Danish.
So by the magical power of a definition in one culture all other cultures are irrelevant. I hope that is not your actual level of reasoning as an actual scientist in your field.

Science is conducted at the international level. Cultural considerations should be entirely excluded. If they aren't, then you're not doing science properly.

No, there are some variations as to how science is understood.

Perhaps at the popular level. Professional scientists should understand the internationally recognised scientific method, at least as far as their work is concerned. If culture is allowed to leak into science, that is unprofessional.

Here is the ISBN 9-788711-348529 Google it and it is a real book written by 2 Danish professors and they have another understanding of science than you.

I don't read Danish but if they think culture should be allowed to affect science (rather than, say, studying if it does or how it might) they are wrong.

No, they are saying that in Denmark we have 7 different kinds of science and not just the one you claim as the one science.
It is 'boundless' and the 'nothing' as described by Hawking. without the time/space of our universe or any possible universe. The propertiws of the Quantum Matrix are Quantum Mechanics.

Who is they? No meaning without further explanation to Methodological Naturalism and science.
Is that to be found in the “Brief History of Time”, “The Universe in a Nutshell”, or elsewhere? I want to look into this a bit.

Reference?
Haha, beat ‘ya to it! You were more succinct, though.
Needs explanation.

Either they have no idea what they're talking about or you've misunderstood.

Well, it is:
Natural science
Social science
Human science
Humanities
History
Logic and math
Science of science.
All are part of what is called videnskab in Danish.

So that is your comeback. You haven't consider that you could be wrong?
They could be wrong, I could be wrong or you could be wrong.
You understand it could also apply to you.
We have these categories in the States, but they don’t describe individual scientific disciplines, but rather broad categories of disciplines. The “Natural Sciences” include all of those “hard” sciences (Biology, Chemistry, Physics, etc.) which deal with the natural or physical world. The “soft” Social Sciences describes those disciplines which deal with aspects of human social interaction, such as psychology, sociology, etc. I’m not sure what you mean by “Han Sciences”, but I suspect that it might be what we call the “Humanities” here in America. If so, then we do not consider them to be sciences at all, but rather as occupying a central position between the sciences and the arts.
