Talk:Laws of science

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] laws and theories

Theories CANNOT become laws because laws are general statements about nature. That is why gravity's principles is a law, while gravity itself is a theory. I will fix this. -intranetusa

_{Subscript text}How about, "Thou shalt not fudge the data"?

Hmm, isn't computer simulation and modelling an institutionalized form of fudging?

(Sorry for my bad English!) Would it be posible to distinguish between "real" laws, ie those which may be used as "axiom" by well-established subfields of physics, and "theorems"?

[edit] Page move query

I suggest we move this page (List of laws in science) to: Laws of science. Any objections? --Sadi Carnot 09:40, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

It's moved. --Sadi Carnot 14:12, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
