Actually, I *DO* believe in the Scientific Method.
I just fail to see the connection between Scientific Method and
Relational. The former is Science, the latter is Maths. Please tell me
how I can use relational theory to predict the future. Without that,
relational is unprovable, and hence unscientific.
Note I didn't say relational is *incorrect* - the ideas of
"mathematically correct" and "scientifically provable" are orthogonal,
and have nothing to say about each other.
Cheers,
Wol
