SCIENCE VS PHILOSOPHY


Both Science and Philosophy concerned with the study about the universe. Philosophy and Science both undergoes different tests to determine such a problem. Science and philosophy used its knowledge to made some analysis and theories. They both find truths and artifacts but what differs is on the way they search for it.  Science and philosophy both observed things. They both used logic in testing. Both understood the truth and reality, but science adds some research or test to prove if it is correct or not.

Science and Philosophy differs in fundamental/methods of applying it to matters. Science is based on empirical-hypothesis test while philosophy based on-reason analysis. Science is a body of knowledge in a form of tests and prophecy about the universe while Philosophy deals critically on reality, truth, theories, rationalism, reasons, values, beliefs, morality and knowledge that matters about the world. Science does not deal with study about morality, values, beliefs, arts and literature. Science provides evidence about a matter that exists than philosophy that does not need it.  They differs on the way they observed matters, Science observed the things around it, while philosophy observed the opinions of other. Science used experiment to have a proof, philosophy do not. Some studies under science should be tested through experiment, it couldn’t be done just through a research but philosophy can.
