 ====Scientific Method: Independent of Topic====
 |  The scientific method is independent of topic...  |One can study **any phenomenon** with the scientific method, including claims of telepathy; selection of topic is independent of science -- there is nothing inherently "unscientific" about studying any subject. (Close-mindedness //is//, however, unscientific.) |
 |  ... yet methodology varies significantly by field  |For example: \\ - Illegal to make experiments on living human brains \\ - Difficult to make comparative studies in sociology |
