Distinguish between science and pseudoscience
What will be an ideal response?
Science is based on evidence gathered from systematic and objective observations. Pseudoscience tends to rely on subjective evidence, anecdotal reports, and a few hand-picked examples of success. Science examines hypotheses and theories that can be tested and refuted. As a result, scientific theories are open to change or revision when new results contradict old ideas. Pseudoscience typically does not acknowledge or accept negative results, and does not change or evolve.
