What is a nonsense in science?
Nonsense in science could for instance refer to a "scientific" study conducted without the use of scientific methods and protocols, which might create non-reproducable results. One example of a scientific method is the double blind experiment used in clinical studies. In such studies a new drug might be tested on a large group of patients where half receives the new drug and half receives a dud, such as sugar pills. The test is called a double blind because neither the patient or the doctor knows which patient receives the drug and who doesn't. This is to avoid placebo-effects or doctors screening certain patients from having an effect on the trial.
