The philosophy of science is the branch of philosophy which deals with the study of science (in the sense of "natural science"). Key topics include the motivation for scientific approaches; the means for determining the validity of information; the formulation and use of the scientific method ; the types of reasoning used to arrive at conclusions; and the implications of scientific methods and models for the larger society, and for the sciences themselves. This article is not exhaustive; it covers only those topics that are seen as central by all of the major philosophies of science. As with the philosophy of mathematics , there tend to be 'schools' of scientific thought, each of which adheres to its own principles. 'Each of these in future deserves its own article(s)'.

About the Spiritualist Religion Page The term "Spiritualism" has been used very loosely, covering a wide variety of psychic phenomena, philosophy, and spirit communication. This site is focused on the religion of Spiritualism. Spiritualism is a wonderfully non-dogmatic religion, science, and philosophy. Spiritualism invites you to doubt, question, and "prove it" for yourself. Without making you change your religion and sell everything you own. However, many people are unclear as to what Spiritualism is really about. How can it possibly be a religion, philosophy and a SCIENCE? How can you make a religion out of "psychic readings"?
