In reference to Wojciech Sady’s lecture: What determines the scientific character of natural studies

This paper is a polemic with Wojciech Sady’s forgoing paper. The main objection to his new approach to demarcation problem is that this approach does not accomplish the criterion formulated in it practical application. Sady accuses medical ethics of not being scientifi c but forgets that he does it from the philosophical not scientific point of view. The only reasonable way to solve philosophers are used to cultivate problems the demarcation problem is to define its practical aim practical application! — what do we need it for? One of such possible aims is to automate the process of distribution of scientific grants.
