    Bleys I'm not softening my or changing my opinion. I'm just fed up with throwing good ACTUAL facts and having them ignored. If you read any of the experiments I talked about, then you would see that psychology is a science. It's definitely not abstract, and I really don't see how it would be.

    Unless we are going way back to the dawning of psychology, behaviourism and animism. Ok I agree that roots of psychology were a bit far fetched and "abstract". But every science starts of abstract.

    Psychology doesn't only deal with ADD/ADHD, Depression, matters like that, but have found many more disorders and where in the brain controls what. Through many experiments that are not unmeasurable, Bleys.

    Also, Empirical evidence is the basis of scientific discovery, that "empirical evidence" are the people observing other people, and some of those "unmeasurable" experiments. I don't think you EVEN KNOW what psychology is. I bet you haven't taken a single psychology course. All you've done Bleys is take what I say, find things to question, but you haven't said anything that proves me otherwise.

    Everyone else who supported Bleys just wound up saying the same thing, they gave examples of bad psychiatrists. Claiming that their unmoral actions and corrupt diagnosis, their inability to look deeper in their patients, this why psychology isn't a science.

    Now if you want the historical facts about how psychology became a SCIENCE, I am more than glad to do so. But it's lengthy, and I don't know if anything will change in regards to your opinion. I want to know why you think psychology is not a science/ I asked you before, explain yourself.

    Big kudoz to docta fizz, for putting everything out on the table. But you are right, it's pointless to argue/debate if no one is going to believe you. Or take a look at someone else's point of view.
    Get this I NEVER GAVE UP ON MY OPINION.

    Creativity is certainly about not being constrained by rules or accepting the restrictions that society places on us. Of course the more people break the rules, the more likely they are to be perceived as ‘mentally ill’
