A scientific idea is one that can be proved or disproved on the basis of facts (evidence). If there is not enough evidence to decide, and the idea is important to keep us thoroughly scientific evidence to confirm or quash the idea. For example, it is important that the treatment of diseases and important to know whether the proposed care to work better than existing treatment or a placebo. Therefore, we regularly test drugs and treatments. The idea that God is not a scientific idea, because no matter how much some people think or believe, there are no facts that accumulate to a creditor to convince an infidel, or vice versa can . For example, the show because of the pain and suffering in the world a loving God does not exist, or that God is a mystery beyond human understanding is? The fact of the pain and suffering is real, but the interpretation is debatable. The ideas of this kind (the existence of God), sometimes called metaphysical ideas. No amount of evidence will be able to solve. These are matters of faith. Of course, all the facts to interpretation, but as evidence over time in the scientific community many ideas are well accepted and Results: The earth is not flat but a sphere, gravity is a force attraction between the body, increases when the behavior is rewarded, etc. developments, which may take place these facts in perspective (the earth is very, very light pear understanding of Newton’s gravity was changed by Einstein The definition of “rewards” for some people is difficult). Since there is no prediction can occur if new facts (or new interpretations) We must accept all the scientific ideas as preliminary. However, in our daily lives, it works well enough does not matter much at once. Here’s an idea I propose is worth asking, for all of us. Is addiction as a disease, an idea provable or refutable? You might be surprised at this question. Have we not often heard that addiction is a disease (or disease of the brain)? Why would you ask that? If it turns out, drug addiction as a sickness, an idea is not provable or refutable, it would change the way we talk about addiction. We could stop trying to promote a certain belief about addiction, and instead just invite people to consider different forms of beliefs about addiction, to identify the worldview that best suits them (similar how people could choose a religion). The big advantage of this approach would encourage people to recovery approaches that make sense to them, rather than feeling compelled to approaches that do not fully follow. But this is not proof that drug addiction is a disease? Here are the facts: 1) the genetic and / or biology is not sufficient to explain the dependence. The social and psychological factors are also involved (there is no medical test you, one of addicts say “or” is used to identify alcoholics “tests, although some damage, tissue), 2 ) “loss of control is variable and may be affected, or may even be entirely accounted for by the discovery of psychosocial factors such as expectation (when alcoholics drink alcohol, but not by drinking alcohol, their behavior does not show a loss of control until they drink), 3) desire, like fear, will significantly reduce (or disappear completely), if not followed ‘Indeed, most ex-smokers will tell you what, 4) require that scientists and current drug treatment for someone to believe addiction is a disease supported. In fact, the idea of addiction-as -a-disease seems too little instruction how to change, 5), although some people with addiction problems that progress over time, most people are not aware of this progress, 6) represent the majority of solving problems people with addictions without treatment or submit a support group. One could read these facts have a very heavy drinker in mind, and include: 1) influenced the course of time, this person seemed more and more by alcohol. No matter what happens to others, the person gradually loses the power to choose, and ultimately hopeless alcoholic. Or 2) it is important enough, people change, even if due to a genetic predisposition and current problems that they receive a greater positive effects of alcohol. Perhaps it is better than dependence-as-a-disease include, is a metaphysical idea, and that removal is the best way to find people that decisions on how you yourself thinking and drug rehabilitation, improved. United States (and to a lesser extent in other countries), we would not face the people on / what they are (“You must accept that you have a disease”), a meeting for Many users angry and not drinkers agency and try to start recreation could work together
