*Not to be confused with [soyence](soyence.md)*.
Science (from Latin *scientia*, knowledge or understanding) in a wide sense means systematic gathering, inference and organization of knowledge, in a more strict sense this process has to be kept rational by obeying some specific strict rules and adhering to whatever principles of objectivity are currently accepted, nowadays for example the [scientific method](scientific_method.md) or mathematical [proof](proof.md). Sciences in the strict sense include [mathematics](math.md) (so called formal science), [physics](physics.md), biology, chemistry, [computer science](computer_science.md), as well as "soft sciences" such as [psychology](psychology.md), sociology etc. Science is not to be confused with [pseudoscience](pseudoscience.md) (such as [gender studies](gender_studies.md) or [astrology](astrology.md)) and [soyence](soyence.md) (political propaganda masked as "science").
