| | Nine easy. In my philosophy class today, we determined that the only true or pure science is mathematics, for all other sciences rely on imperfect observations of the real world. Mathematics is pure logic. As a prerequisite to study at Plato's Academy, one had to study mathematics for ten years, because Plato felt that mathematics teaches you to think. In fact, Plato put an inscription above the door to his Academy that roughly means: Let no non-mathematician enter here. So one could argue that mathematics is merely applied philosophy. Something to chew on.
