The Dilemma Science - Pseudoscience
Vassil Prodanov
Abstract
The article is devoted to the issue of fast the growth of the phenomenon pseudoscience in the contemporary world as a companion of the enormous growth of the real science. The pseudoscience is defined as ideas proposed under the guise of scientific language and symbols, speculating with the real science. Their target populations are the common people and government institutions, but usually the scientific community rejects them and it is difficult for their supporters to present their positions in the serious science journals.In principle, the pseudoscience is not inclined to take into account the facts; often it fabricates facts or accepts unchecked facts with unreliable methods.
