Evidence and proof

Hi Barbara, I really like how you brought up this debate between political science and sociology and how because it doesn't have the word "science" in it or isn't as "black and white" as physics or biology would be for example. This is a prime example of the stigma that sociology as a discipline and its practicants go through, but people need to understand that people aren't just black and white, there are so many of people living on this Earth each going through different things because of their backgrounds or just everything around them makes it impossible for universal laws to be made, these external factors affecting each and everyone of us and our actions change every time a new generation is born and thus making the previous social theory outdated. But that is the case with every sciences, how many times has there been a new discovery that disrcredited or put back into question previous theory? Just because with sociology there aren't many universal laws that apply for everyone shouldn't mean that it isn't considered part of the sciences.
