Yes, I'm sure that I stand corrected. And what's an "unnatural science?"
Well natural science is based on empiricism. Read Popper or any text book on the philosophy of science. An unnatural science would be based on rationalism. Like math and logic.

No, he used to Google to verify that logic and mathematics are sciences.
Davin found a definition that met the cause but without really understanding the implications for his and your argument.

Actually I like your and his position. Meaning that empiricism is not the only way to gain knowledge. It's basically my position and if we have to use the broader definition of science to get you to accept it then fine.
