Nope, science is the modern name for natural philosophy.

It ries to pretend it isnt a branch of philsophy. This leads to
huge mistakes - like 'climate change'

That's a major problem with 'science' today. The experiments are
done, the results analysed and p value calculated, but somewhere
along the line the illogic of the experimenter completely screwed up,
making the conclusions largely worthless.


And that is because people are taught how to 'do science', not what
science *is*.

It's because people are mostly not taught logic and reason, ie philosophy. Human egos assume that we are reasonable and logical, when naturally that is not the case. It takes learning to improve it.
