No, in ALL science. If there is no experimentation, it ISN'T science.

While it is true that the so-called "soft" sciences such a psychology, sociology, et al., are usually incapable of coming to concrete conclusions, they still use experiments to accrue evidence of their hypotheses.

Your mathematical formulae have no basis in any kind of experimenting, and thusly can not be given any higher regard than numbers which are completely made up. You must have experiments to back up your claim, for without them, that's all you have; a claim.

Furthermore, even after repeatedly being requested to do so, you have yet to provide a reason for why you've brought this up in the first place.

I am not a "believer". I hold my opinion for the simple reason that there is no evidence to the contrary.
