Some think of science like the original, Latin root scientia, which generally means knowledge. The modern common use is that it means physics, chemistry, and biology, with some suspicion about what mathematicians are up to! General knowledge, rather than a discipline, emphasizes methodology, which anyone in any discipline can use. Scientific method, therefore, underlies the precepts, pay attention, be intelligent, and responsibly act. In other words, collect data, interpret meaning, verify (or falsify!) fact or knowledge in judgment. In that regard, we can avoid some confusion if we begin by saying what we mean when we use the term science.
