75. Do you think pure mathematics is a science?
Edited on Sun Jul-03-11 09:06 PM by GliderGuider
It looks a lot like philosophy to me...

Edited to add this comment from the Wiki entry on Mathematics: Albert Einstein stated that "as far as the laws of mathematics refer to reality, they are not certain; and as far as they are certain, they do not refer to reality."
