I'm not saying that science is what makes things happen.
I'm saying that science is the naturally occurring interactions between matter, etc. This is objective. Because these interactions remain constant in the absence of humanity and our subjectivity.
The subjective part comes into play when we use techniques, technology, etc to observe and manipulate these interactions.
And we define these interactions by categorizing them into fields of study.
I get what you're saying, but what I'm saying is that science in itself is the interactions between different forms of matter. The science isn't what we do to observe what is occurring natural. The science is what is occurring naturally.
We apply techniques to observe and manipulate the science. And we define what we do into fields of science i. e. physics, chemistry, etc
I don't think you understand what science is. It literally is not what you are observing, but the act of observing it. Science is the knowledge we gain from observations, not the actions we are observing.
For your reference.
I'm not misunderstanding what science is. I was actually saying that science is both the naturally occurring interactions and the title we give to the field of studying and manipulating these interactions. I didn't make myself clear enough.
here's a different link for your reference.
