Richard Dawkins justifies science in the coolest way ever
Did someone really just ask that question? Holy shit I hate everything. These people have come to the point where they think it takes a system of belief to justify what amounts to emperical evidence and formal logical thought WHICH LITERALLY CONSISTS OF YES OR NO STATEMENTS ABOUT OBJECTS.
theyre actually both right. the guy asking the question is requesting a decuctive argument proving the reliability of science, but Dawkins is replying that we dont have that, but as seen in the results we have from science, an inductive argument based on high probability will work.
Had to listen to it 4 times before I figured out he said "when you base medicine on science you cure people," and not "when you base medicine on science you kill people."
