??Science or Science-Fiction?? Pseudoscience: Is a belief or process which masquerades as science. Pseudoscience does not adhere to a valid scientific method, lacks supporting evidence or plausibility, cannot be reliably tested, or otherwise lacks scientific status.

Characteristics of Pseudoscience Vague Contradictory Exaggerated or improvable claims An over-reliance on confirmation rather than Rigorous attempts at refutation Lack of openness to evaluation by other experts General absence of systematic processes to rationally develop theories
