Does this statement make sense?

Question

''Science is proved knowledge'' What my statement means is that science is about facts that have been proved to be correct. OR should I make the statement to '' Science is knowledge that contains facts that have been proved true.'' Which statement would be better to use?

Answer 1

Yes, Purple Is Awesome!

Answer 2

The first sentence sounds good.

Answer 3

Science is the pursuit of knowledge.

Answer 4

i would prefer to say that science is systematic field of study or the knowledge gained from it.

Answer 5

I like the 2nd statement, but you should change "proved" to "proven"

Answer 6

The first statement is shorter and makes as much sense as the second. Both statements, however, are wrong.  You might as well say that painting is "just putting pretty colors together."

"Proved knowledge" (whatever that is) is only 5% of science.

Answer 7

<<Does this statement make sense? ''Science is proved knowledge''>>

No.  Science is about coming up with evidence-based theories (which are tested explanations) that account for observed facts.  However, there's always the possibility that the theory (tested explanation) may turn out to be wrong after further testing.  The methodology invovles trying to falsify -to show that your explanation is wrong- rather than trying to prove that your explanation is correct.

<<'' Science is knowledge that contains facts that have been proved true.''>>

That's wrong as well.  Science is about coming up with evidence-based explanations to account for observed facts, but none of the explanations, strictly speaking, can ever be considered proven true.  New observations showing something else, or better explanations, are always possible.  Science is a methodology rather than knowledge.
