The use of pseudoscience in the search for knowledge can be very dangerous.
What is pseudoscience?
Pseudoscience is formed from two words - pseudo which means 'false', and science which means 'knowledge'. Thus, pseudoscience is just a way of using unconfirmed information in a confirmed way.
For example, concluding that exercising increases life span simply because a fitness instructor lives a long life without any proper research is a form of pseudoscience.
Scientific information are obtained from research that are based on the scientific method. Any other information obtained without following the scientific method are considered unscientific, or pseudoscience at best.
Pseudoscientific information could expose people to danger and cause major damage to society at large.
