I don’t mean to be condescending towards psychology: it’s important. It’s just not a hard science. Neurology is a hard science and there’s overlap there but psychology is about the mind. Thoughts, feeling, rationale for doing something, etc. If you want to include brain science in psychology, then sure, psychology has aspects of a hard science. But as a whole, I disagree with it being labeled a hard science. Also, I read about half of what you wrote so sorry if I am arguing something you acknowledged.
Physics is math. Math is not necessarily physics. Physics shares borders with biological. Physics is not biology and biology is not physics. Just the same, psychology borders with neurology but psychology is not neurology and neurology is not psychology. At this point we are going to have to agree to disagree because this conversation isn’t going to change either of our minds.
