:**Intuition - Ideas that seem true because they make sense are not counted as '''scientific evidence'''. Just because something seems reasonable, interesting or makes sense does not mean it is true.
:**Tradition - Ideas that have been passed on through generations. Just because many people say something is true, doesn't mean it is true.
