Science does not lay much stock in deductive logic.

Liberal inductivism is rampant.

Conservative Science = the observation to assumption ratio is small and reasonable.

Liberal Science = the observation to assumption ratio is large and unreasonable.

I asked you to show me one stunk up, lonely case of a deductive proof anywhere in a natural science journal, and you failed that task. Induction is overwhelmingly the mode of reasoning science employs. Employing inductive reasoning in a sharply critical way makes you a scientist, not a liberal.
