摘要
While usually prevail in science skepticism, the skeptic in pseudoscience is often dismissed as ignorant or evil numbing in its development. Speculation is part of both science and the pseudoscience, the difference is that the latter usually feed on mere speculation, without going any further, ie without attempting to verify experimentally the speculative ideas. Scientific speculation is typical of the early stages of establishing a theory, when the scientist, in light of the experimental results, create a model of the behavior of Nature. Typically, pseudoscience practiced escaping from the trials and successes basing exclusively on the successes of their predictions in light of certain statistics, often rigged. Science must therefore be communicative without this feature would not be science, to become magic. This communication also needs to be affordable to all, without resorting to the alchemists and esoteric secret societies, hence the importance of disclosure would be.
