You can type in resiliant thought on google to search (please note it is resiliant not resilient), then click “Uploads from resiliant thought”. The video with “GavinRender” is the one. It is 5 minute video. The model is only 5 lines. It represent causality, phase transition, critical point, similarity, symmetry, asymmetry, hierarchical system, limitation, without limitation, order, disorder, singularity, plurality and many more...

Dear moderators: if this post violates the forum’s rules, please delete it and I apologise in advance. The objective of posting this video link is to encourage further discussion of a mathematical model. This mathematical model can represents and unites those fundamental interrelationships. Therefore, it unites social science with natural sciences, and further, science with philosophy.

It is widely used in a civilised world.

Re:"Until about the year 1600 there was no difference". That is exactly right. Thales, an ancient Greek philosopher who proposed " water compose the world" is considered the first scientist. The term of "science" was not used then. From the historical tradition, the study of beauty traditionally falls into domain of philosophy. But now, it is a study of psychology/neuropsychology/neural physiology. It involves neural physiology, biochemistry and physics. Certainly, it is science. However, it has its philosophy root.

I believe philosophy deals with the most fundamental issues while science deals with the issues that based on the fundamental issues. This means the laws that govern all science issues are based on the fundamental laws that govern the whole universe. The study of philosophy is to look into these fundamental laws. It can be traced back to the origin. In the ancient Greece, philosophy was defined as "love wisdom" but this term is very ambiguous. Human being uses their wisdom to do all things for example, use wisdom to do cunning things. But this is not philosophy. What the Greeks meant was to perform intellectual activities to search for the answer from environment (external and internal). The whole process of this activity was defined as philosophy, for example, "what compose our world" and methodologies including rhetoric and dialectic. But later, the division of looking into the environment was classified as natural philosophy which now has been changed to the term of science. From the medieval time, Human being's approach to look for answer have developed into the so-called "scientific approach" which is more accurate compared with the ancient time but still falls into the fundamental approach of how to understand the world. When the new approach of looking into the world was formed, many new science developments were achieved. Science as a breakaway division of philosophy left philosophy as a study looking to the most fundamental rules governing our world. That is why philosophy covers much larger system while science only covers their subsystem, a much smaller area. The commonality between these two is they both looking to rules in the universe. The difference is they study different rules.

What is the difference between science and philosophy?
