What is Science?

Methodology in morals is much more complicated that it seems - a strict 'scientific' approach obtains in moral discourse, just as it obtains in other pursuits. Obvioulsy, the term 'scientific' demands some attention: according to Aristotle, science is 'causal knowledge,' that is, certain knowledge through causes. Aristotle lays out the mode of procedure according to scientific investigation in both the Prior and Posterior Analytics. Whereas the Prior Analytics mainly concentrates on the 'form' of propositions necessary within the syllogism, the Posterior, on the other hand, concentrates on the 'matter.'
