vagueness-of-language

Like all great things which then become fashions, science, as now the universal stamp of approval, probably receives more abuse than any other field of study. Glaze the word itself over whatever vague ideology one may presume ratified, no matter the degree of pseudo-science or lack of scholarly credibility packaged within, and the many will consume it like gravy on a feast. My thought for the time is that as the promise of true science increases, so shall rise its many more superficial counterparts as provided by the agenda-bound trendies and hyper-ambitious laypersons to boot.

What does __nited States of America_ mean? That we__e some states, we__e united somehow, and that we__e in America. America could be anywhere on the continents of North or South America, so that__ not specific enough, and the part about the states doesn__ narrow it down, either. Mexico has united states, too. So does Canada, except they call them provinces. It__ not even a name. It__ just a vague description. It__ so generic, like naming a country __ountry.
