    -----------------



    people that have fundamentally different views on the way things are learned or understood shouldnt be trying to make their world views fit with each other in some self esteem boosting masquerade ... its only a masquerade because its impossible to isolate the results in productivity due to this program so thats why people call it pseudo science

    -----------------



    the presuppositions aren't the problem its the claims made about the results ... theres no way to test that the results in productivity are due to the program thus correlation (assuming productivity goes up) and no causation making it in my definition pseudoscience

    THE definition of pseudoscience is an fallacious assumption. If there are none then branding it pseudoscience is just wrong. I'm not trying to defend it as I don't know enough yet.

    i think you'll want to check again ... unless you have a link to a definition that has as part of it your qualifier that the assumptions must be fallacious

    and still with this definition we could say that it is pseudoscience because it is making fallacious claims about the results

    Fallacious claims, not fallacious assumptions.

    but a fundamental assumption of theirs must be that this program boosts productivity which it cannot be proven that it does

    They're claiming it boosts productivity, if they know it's all rubbish then they're assuming nothing.
