Accepted descriptive theories   Method Theory Employed method Accepted descriptive theories Accepted methodology 1. How can an employed method conflict with the accepted methodology from which it was derived? 2. If they can somehow conflict, how does this not violate the zeroth law?

3rd Law: Method Employment A method becomes employed only when it is deducible from some subset of other employed methods and accepted theories of the time.

Accepted descriptive theories   Method Theory Employed method Accepted descriptive theories Accepted methodology 1. By the third law, an employed method is deducible from some accepted theories and employed methods, not all accepted theories and employed methods. 2. In this case, the employed method is not deducible from the accepted methodology. 3. The only contradiction lies between the accepted methodology and the employed method, since both are elements of the same mosaic. Yet, by the zeroth law, the two are still compatible for they are part of the same mosaic.

Descriptive Theory ≡ Normative Theory ≡ Theory ≡ Methodology ≡ A set of propositions that attempts to describe something. Descriptive Theory ≡ Normative Theory ≡ A set of propositions that attempts to prescribe something. A set of propositions. Theory ≡ A normative theory that prescribes the rules which ought to be employed in theory assessment. Methodology ≡

Theory Acceptance ≡ A theory is said to be accepted if it is taken as the best available description or prescription of its object.
