Predictability as a Way of Knowing
<quote from Real Faith & Reason, vol 2>
When scientists want a certain hypothesis to be true, they fall into motivated thinking. They test the hypothesis, but it fails the test. It doesn’t meet the prediction. So they make up stories to hide the failure. These stories are called just-so stories or rescuing hypotheses. Also, motivated thinkers may use political pressure and litigation to limit what schools can teach. They may keep schools from telling the truth about the failed tests. They may get the schools to tell their just-so stories. They may glorify the broken hypothesis and claim it’s a scientific theory. In other words, motivated thinkers can fake predictability.
