Arguments have happened. Wars have waged. Join a side and battle it out. I don’t mind what side you pick. Unless it’s not Chemistry.
... fine. You’ve joined the second biggest army. Bio is first. Join Chem. Without Chem we would not have anything.
Chemistry is just the study of those things. Atoms and other matter would still exist without chemistry. However, without physics, people would still think the Earth is flat. Clearly, it's a cube.
I like them all about the same. The best science is a silly debate because they are all incredibly important to understanding the ways of the universe. Any science based on observable facts is the best science.
As Firespartan said, every science is important and valuable to understanding the world around us and, by extension, each other. Without psychology we wouldn't understand why people act the way they do. Without physics we wouldn't understand why matter and energy is the way it is. Biology helps us to understand life on earth, chemistry helps us understand the finer things in matter... they're all important in their own way.
Psychology and biology are both my personal favorites. Psychology, especially. I'm really fascinated with things like mental illness and how and why humans respond to certain situations the way they do. Biology (including marine biology) because learning about how life actually works is so cool to me.
Would have said I don't have a real favorite, but this changed my mind. Math is my favorite science! Wait a minute...
@OzoneFruit I was going to reference that exactly, except I expand it by adding PoliSci at the end. To explain: each one of those is the previous one, but with narrower application. Physics is math constrained by reality, biology is chemistry constrained to organic interactions, sociology is psychology constrained only to groups, etc. That said, the one superior science is MAD SCIENCE! Only with mad science can one turn a black hole into a star, or overcome entropy and proceed farther south than the start of time, or create sentience and a soul in a mechanical being, or invent new elements that break out understanding of physical or electrical energy transfer, or convince a flat-earther to go to the beach and point at the next continent over, or calculate that the opposite of cinnamon is indeed frogs!
No, only because most of Mad Science is actually Science Fiction. So in reality, it is a subsection of literature, not a science. Mad Science is basically any impossible or unethical scientific experiments that produce effective results. Such as Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, Frankenstein, and the Hulk.
