Not sure if HN understands what science is, because I caught reddit saying a scientist's opinion was science.

Science is science when an author can be removed from a study and the experiment can be repeated. A 12 year old or science hater should be able to reproduce the results if it's science.

Things that aren't science-

>Authority- A PhD/medical doctor/a scientist, these are human opinions, not science. They can cite studies to be scientific.

>Art

>Tradition

There's value in non scientific disciplines, but they have their own burdens to be aware of.
