Talk:Just So Story

From EvoWiki

Jump to: navigation, search

This page, like the other fallacy pages, is about an error that can occur when you try to do science. It's not about "a term" for that error, derogatory or not, so I removed that part.

"Scientific" does not quite fit for those cases that are true Just So Stories.

Also, I changed the order because the point is lack of evidence. Common properties, like "fantastic" and "improbable", are not necessary ingredients and belong on second place.

For example, the application of the term to real science (evolutionary psychology and so on) lacks that "fantastic" and "improbable" property even if there is lack of evidence. I changed the order here too. --tk (t) 08:53, 3 July 2006 (BST)
